#1 resource for Cigar Box Guitars, Free Plans, How-To, Parts & More!

New here, just saying hello

Hey everyone, I stumbled upon the cigar box guitar several months back after reading about Luther Dickinson online while I was bored out of my mind at work one day. Who knew it would lead to this? Anyway, shortly thereafter I found this site. I must say all your photos and forum topics, etc have really helped me out. External e-mail accounts are blocked at the day job, though, and considering I rarely use the Internet at home, it's taken me a while to get here. Better late than never, though. I'm gonna keep this short and sweet unless it's already whatever the opposite of short and sweet is, but thanks. I can't look at anything anymore without thinking about how to use it on a CBG. I'm a regular at Home Depot. My brand name guitars are collecting dust (not really, but you know what I mean). All that's fine with me though, and now I can't believe I haven't been doing this forever and I can barely remember what I did before. So that's all...big thank you to everyone here. I'll be sure to post photos real soon.

All the best - MRC
