Following with the theme of leather sides, the instrument has five long horn
sound holes. There are four on the top side and one on the back.
The one on the back houses the three inch speaker for the amplifier.
The body beneath the hide is cherry. All the wood is solid, no veneer
and no plywood.
Most unique is the small circuit board amplifier built right inside.
There is no volume control, just an on/off switch. The volume is
preset to give the instrument a certain boost that propels it above the rest
with volume and sound. The speaker is built right inside near the
front facing down covered by a black grill. There is a nine volt
battery compartment on the user side so as to not be seen by anyone else.
The instrument is lacquered waxed, buffed and hand rubbed.
