looking for info on the CB Gitty 3-string kit

Hi, I'm looking for information on the CB Gitty 3-string guitar kit, but the stuff I'm trying to find out isn't available on their store site. I am a musician but I've never built a cigar box guitar before, I've been thinking about doing it for years and it seems like a good time to give it a try now and spend some time making it the way I want it.

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've always been interested in handmade musical instruments. But the cigar box blues sound especially I'm a big fan of. It shows up often in the subgenre 'dark country' and I love the gritty feel of the sound. It's raw and real.
