    Finished FB Kit

    This is my first PitBull kit. Awesome Product! The center is a red water based dye from Wisconsin. Some hardware is antique from the local Kane County Flea Market. Some Piping from Ace Hardware. I also used some parts of a well finished Cigar Box for the decoration on the headstock. Thanks for PitBull for the inspiration. I'm playing this with a little reverb and distortion and a slide. Great sustain and nasty good sound. Peace all!
