FEATURED INSTRUMENT
- OF THE DAY -
Witchita Sam's short-scale cigar box guitar made from his grandfather's cigar box
This classic little build features a simple dulcimer type fretting, beautifully aged neck that matches the box patina and a brilliant scroll on the headstock. Click the picture to see it up close or visit Wichita Sam's profile on the Nation. Sam is also a pastor and runs the Cigar Box Nation Chapel, a place for prayer requests and fellowship.
