However do I have to upload to sound cloud or the like to embed or does anyone know an easier way to link it???

Other sites are available! You can't upload soundfiles directly to this Forum, sorry. Keith

To be honest the reason I used the aluminium was that it was easy to bend and manipulate in to shape.

Kudos on your first build. The sides of a guitar are generally thought to just hold the front and back apart and play very little part in the sound production, with yours though I feel that the reflectivity of the aluminium is definitely playing a part. There is no single way that a guitar should sound, and yours sounds good to me. Well done, now on to the next one, you can never make just one.

A day without some Sandy Denny is unthinkable.

What doesn't kill you makes you bitter.

Always good to have the experienced ones cast their ears and eyes over my first attempt. Its time to start project number two now.
