There are a good number of builders who would love to take on that task.

 

You could start with Josh Gayou:

 

http://smokehouseguitars.com/

 

Or John McNair:

 

http://reddogguitars.com/

 

That should get you started on your search. I am sure some other builders will jump in here.

Pfffffffffff...............

 

They say the economy is bad? Whenever I call someone to do something it's like pulling teeth to find anybody to do anything. I called Red Dog, he only does 3 strings now. So I'm looking for either 4 string or 6 string. Didn't contemplate 4 strings till I watched some of the videos.

If you are happy to import from the UK  then these UK sellers have 6 string CBGs up for sale

on their websites at the moment  http://www.randyroosterscigarboxguitars.com/page6.htm or http://www.chickenbonejohn.com/page3.htm

 

The 6 string group http://www.cigarboxnation.com/group/6stringcigarboxguitars is worth a look through - it might give you a few ideas what you want to build or have built.

Watched some of his videos and those guitars just ooze swamp, which is exactly what I'm after. I figure I'll coax about 20 more tunes for my band out of one of these monsters.
