Profile Information

How did you learn about Cigar Box Nation?
Started making a CBG kit and needed answers to so many questions
How many instruments have you built so far?
I have now built 2 CBGs, fretted and no frets
What do you find most interesting about cigar box guitars? (If you do not enter something meaningful here (at least one sentence long), your membership may be rejected as a spam/bot fake account).
I have always struggled playing a six string guitar, and have found the 3 string CBG perfect to learn and fun to play. I regularly listen to blues/hillbilly jazz performed by musicians such as Bill Frisell, and more recently Justin Johnson. Am enjoying the building process and creativity for each individual CBG.
