Hi, I had to pick a box recently and I chose the one the same as yours on the left. I pulled out the 4 bottom half box liners and removed the cardboard top liner as it would dampen the tops acoustic response, only to find the lid has an MDF top not timber. So there goes my acoustic cbg idea.

Its annoying as the bottom is timber. The difference in response is very noticeable when tapped with the finger. A good lesson in the importance the top plays in sound production.

So this box will have to have a pickup fitted.

Cheers Taff

Thanks for the reply’s, I’m been very sick since last Thursday.  Went to ER Sunday and feel much better today.  I’m going back to cigar box store latter in the week to see what he has.  I don’t have any idea how often he has new boxes.

Sorry to hear that Paul, I hope you get well soon.

As for box supply, maybe you could organize a Start Smoking campaign in your area. More smokers, more available boxes.  :D
