#1 resource for Cigar Box Guitars, Free Plans, How-To, Parts & More!
Greetings from Finland
Helloes all, I'm 40+ dude from Finland and I am currently building my very first own instrument, it's not actually CBG, because here is so hard to get those boxes, but no prob, I started to build own body for it :). Lets see what become of it :D. I've played guitar for few years now, but cigarbox instruments and building your own stuff is really hooked me. Im forward to learn much from ya and prepare for the stupid questions xD.
Justin Johnson is the main reason the northern guy like me got into this, really inspirational man. Ive browsed some of the projects and pictures here and I was absolutely stunned, such geniously wonderful instruments and ideas. My clear favorite was one that was from back of the chair, brilliant.
Soo... thanks for the add and nice to be here :)
