I don't like to cover up the writing/artwork on the box, so I always place the bridge closer to the back edge of the box.  So far, they all have sounded good.

I want the first thing you notice to be that the guitar is made out of a cigar box.

For me it depends the box,but yeah I for the most part like a nice clean looking CBG w/ OG artwork.Thats the problem deciding which one to cut a giant hole in for a reso cone!lol!

I'm trying to work the "tailbone" out of mine.My first 3 had a tailbone which allowed me to have my bridge all the way back to nearly the end of the box.

But Im also using bigger boxes now and shorter scale necks.My fav scale for a CBG is 24",but the 23 5/8?,whatever a my lap steel is works great too.25.5 isnt bad either for the right application.
