This really grabbed me. 

It's got a kinda post-apocalyptic sadness . . . (or something) to it.

 . . . and it reminds me why he's the King.

Thanks for posting, Shane.

I want to make one more comment as an "Observation" from an Engineers' "standpoint". I always get "drawn into" over thinking and over building things & sometimes the "K.I.S.S." (your favorite rock group) theory kicks in ... "KEEP - IT - SIMPLE - STUPID"!!! And that's your approach to your building ... And yet "Your Playing" is to Optimize" & "Maximize" everything you can produce out of that very simple & yet primitive instrument! The "Cigar Box Guitar" may have carved out an "Octagon Shaped Wheel" ... "But You Keep It Rolling"!

The "Grand Master" making an "O'l Beat Up Looking Cigar Box" attached to a simple stick with 3 strings and creating "What It's All About" ... And (probably a recycled Piezo P/U - No Less) making it sound "Primitive & Yet Sweet"!!! Your "Our Inspiration Man"!!!

Excellent!

Wow,  That is some fine touch like Danny said, and a lot of feeling,  Fantastic.

Yup.  I keep messing with other things, but threes are just about the best.

A lot of people don't get the 3 string, those people never played one and don't know the challenges they provide.

real nice Shane.
