Goblin Guitar

Recently I've been rebuilding some of my homemade guitars (now that I know a little about what I'm doing, lol).

I've never liked the sound of my 6-string fretted cigar box guitar (CBG). The top wasn't very rigid which gave it a distant sound. So I took that box off and replaced it with an all wood Padron box. This required quite a bit of reshaping of the neck carry-through structure, but I finally got it to fit.

While I was at it, I did a little pyrography on this one - a goblin face.

Also pyrographed a couple of other boxes - one with a Goddess face, destined to be a trad 4 string banjo (trad 4 string is 3 regular strings and 1 high drone) - another with a dragon destined to be a ukulele.
