Chickering strikes again

Years ago when I knew less than the little I know now, I did
one of those 4 piece pinblock Chickerings. I also didn't have
as many power tools.

My solution was to make the bass section from a piece of scrap pinplank
since it had the least curves and valleys. the other three sections I
reused the original pinblock (nicely fitted already) and used pinblock
plugs. It has been in a practice room ever since and keeps 440 no problem.
