$6 Flea market guitar. 

 

Big Box Guitar

Sometimes called "Stink Bug" because there is one stuck in the glue where two braces cross under the sound board. I meant to get him out, but didn't want to pick him out with my fingers when I saw him. Ended up forgetting about it, so presumably he is still in there.

I took apart the Art box guitar and extended the neck dowel. The box had warped and it had lost most of it's volume as the sound board was down on the dowel. This box is braced where that shouldn't happen.
