Hello! My name is Kevin M. Kraft, founder of the annual Kansas City Cigar Box Guitar Festival. This year's event will take place on August 26th, and once again I am accepting cigar box guitars and cigar box guitar-related donation, which will be raffled off during the festival, the proceeds to benefit Kansas City's Blues in the Schools program. If you have a guitar, accessory, CD, DVD--anything related to cigar box guitars that you would like to donate, please contact me at the Cigar Box Nation or email me at kevinmkraft@juno.com to learn where to send it.
Hello Shane,hows it going in the U.S.A. it's pissing down with rain here in Malvern U.K. My friend in England also called Shane is building me a flying vee guitar he also built me a cbg using a dog bowl as a resonator,with humbuckers,the guitar has got amazing sustain when played on a amp with the dirt on.ive also got a divstik and a dulcimer which is a little strange to play. Anyhow must go best wishes Ken
Built my first fretless Cigar Box well kinda its not a cigar box more of a old metal first aid kit i found
anyway what would you recommend for string setup as far as the hight from the neck to the strings mine are pretty high havent meassure them yet for accuracy but their around 1/2 inch or so and by doing this do you think it will interfear with the slide thanks
Hope things are going well. I was a boss and manager for 30 plus years. I am much happier the past few years as just another worker (and better yet, just part time.) I hope the same increase in peace and calm goes to you.
