Handmade 3 string fretless cigar box guitar build #014

The VICTOR SINCLAIR box is a very nice box with just a few scuff marks that are hard to see. You can also still open the box since the "top" is now the back....

Now that's my kinda guitar. You do some solid builds there my friend. I love the idea of opening the box still. Above all things in these builds is the sound though and you've nailed it for how I personally always preffered a CBG to sound. Awesome.

I love the old timey big sound hole with the neck showing through.   Classic.   Not done as much as it should be.  Sounds good.   I like it ever better than the black one.

I used to cut the box with a table saw.   I learned from others that my accuracy might be better if I cut the outside cuts with my fret saw.  It did improve me a bit.   Looks like you did fine with the table saw.  Be careful with those fingers!
