The HUGE Chateau Fuente box with the 1/2 round molding wood pieces on the ends.
The natural wood Punch box with the plastic, puffy, oval sticker on top.
It also depends on what yer lookin for.
Kinda like which is better, Ford or Chevy.

I don't like any plywood I wanna use full wood or minimally plywood cigar boxes.
Plastic sounds awfully and makes wood sound worser. Thinner the plywood better the sound
because then the sound don't escape through many layers of wood.
What is the best sounding box if I don't want to use plywood or wanna use only thin plywood boxes ?
Limited experience here with not a ton of builds, but those all-wood Punch Gran Puro boxes that AFKAM suggested are loud and sound sweet. And who doesn't love that sticker in the middle of the box?
I hardly ever plug in El Segundo any more. It might be my playing ability has improved, but I think they get a better tone with a bunch of playing too. I wasn't so impressed with the box at first, but either my ear is getting tin, or this thing is like pure honey after a few months.
The trapezoidal one, black with a flip top? I gave one of those away, but i still have another if ya want it.
