Looking good, I have the neck and fret board cit to size. I found sink drain sieves at the dollar store, a buck a pair, I splurged and bought 2 pair. Any tips in spacing the fret board, how do you measure the distance in 10ths/100ths of a inch?
Cheers Ron.
Larry, that one probably wouldn't be the best for a CBG... just looking at it, I think it'd be too big, and I think it's designed to be mounted on regular acoustic guitars where the curve in the body is.
Check out ebay user "debstyme" and browse what they've got. Personally, I really like the AB2:
It's very small in terms of surface area, and it's kinda brownish in color (which looks good on some boxes).
Also check out the Artec AB1, ASE, and ME2. I've also used the ME2 before with success as well.
The thing with any of these is, ya gotta make sure they'll fit on your box. The AB2 is super small (62mm wide) and I think would fit most cigar boxes. The AB1 is two potentiometers, which could be adapted into your design. The other ones might be wider than your box. I've noticed that ebay seller doesn't list the dimensions on all the pages, so double check their dimensions. I believe you can find them at www.artecsound.com... although right now that page isn't loading, so I'm not 100% sure. If not, I know there is a page out there with dimensions, you can google around for it.

You can do that yourself in the future using the camera icon to upload the photo, rather than treating it as an attachment.
BTW, the build looks great!
