Hello, thanks to everyone for what you do for service members. I am currently deployed, some buddies of mine referred me to this site and I am itching to give the Cigar Box guitar a try.
I wish to get started and any advice will be greatly appreciated...
Thanks and look forward to this experience.

Hi Christopher,
Thank you for your service to your country, and welcome to the Nation. We should be able to fix you up with something.
Do you have any previous guitar playing experience, and would you need a right handed or left handed instrument?
Dan
I do not have a lot of experience. A couple of my buddies here have one and they have been playing every night. They said if I could get one they will help me learn and get better at it. I am in need of a right handed instrument.
I am available for a build Dan, have a couple already done as well. The black resonator in the picture is unspoken for. I will post another pic of another one, (more of an old school build) tonite if these don't catch your fancy Christopher I can do something custom for you.
Just let me know Dan and Chris...............
Just some details on the black one above. It is strung with lighter 3 strings with a very good action for slide or normal fretting. It does have a piezo pickup for when you get home and want to amp up. Currently tuned DAD.
Hey Henry, long time no see!!!
Thanks for jumping in....
I am not very picky however, when I start heading home and I have to go through US Customs I will not be able to take these through customs. You can not carry license plates or signs. The ones my buddies got are good to go. They were out of a cigar box and the wood was sealed by stain. Sorry for the inconvenience. If you cant help me I understand. It also cant have any unfinished wood showing by that I mean unstained.
That black license plate guitar is amazing. absolutely awesome
Bit of a better pic there.
Thanks Dan. Good to be back. Still been building for various charities around here but now have my new woodshop running full steam. Very happy to help out.
Christopher, just let me know how these ones look or I can custom build for you sir.
