Looks Great! Well done!

Thanks for the encouraging words! I learned a lot and have another one planned.

Very Nice and Peaceful, but I guess it can call out our dancing feet too! Very Nice strap .

That looks like a great first effort.

Maybe a warmoth neck might be an option?

Thanks for the info.  I've had good luck with both CB Gitty and MGB, but have not been building much for the last two - three years.  I have an electric six neck on hand... Fender style.  I prefer one like you have here.  Will see where things go, but I for sure plan to make a couple chuggers soon and maybe a six.

Thanks! The custom printed box is from CBG. The neck is from MGB and is a great, bolt on neck ($80) but a lot of what they sell is cheap Chinese crap and their customer service stinks.

Is that neck from CB Gitty?  I have some notion of doing a six this year.

Comment by Uncle John on March 22, 2024 at 3:20am

Very nice looking sixer and box or tin.  Nice CBN icon (little pic) too.
