El Ka-bong? Reference to 60's Quickdraw Magraw cartoons. Probably only in the US.

I think he ran into Speedy Gonzales......
As I said the neck is fine, I think it will go on a resonator ‘guitar’ I have been wanting to build for some time....... the result could be rubbish!
Will post pics later. Pete

Here’s one idea for this Yamaha neck There aren’t many ( any?) stainless steel body resos around. Should be a barrel of laughs.

Here is another thing I have been thinking about. The bin would be cut down to 3-4” ( so not the whole bin ) and the cover plate is already made. The galvanised finish is very like Duco....... Pete I would ,in fact , use the bottom of the bin , so it will already have a back.
