While working on the number 3 and 4 of the Fab Four, we came to the conclusion that the the boxes were a bit to high. So we did put new front and backs on them, without using the lids. This means there's material for a number 5! The boxes number 3 and 4 are ready. In the pile of old broken furniture we got from out neighbours, we managed to cut a few neck's out of a beech bed. Number 5 is going to be made out of the 2 lids that were left over. They to are out of beech but with beech plywood front's, which will stay as they are. We put some materials together for the design... 3 "tuna" can's, a strange kind of hardwood (which makes green sawdust while sanding) for the fretboard and some small parts, some 3 millimeter threaded rod, some nuts and washers, a beech neck and a "triple" tuner from an old guitar that was left after replacing them because one side was broken. In the end... well let's see what we can make of it.
