I agree with thikwater. a sopranino ukulele with an 11" scale. I know that's tiny but in the hands of a good player?

I don't know if there is a perfect size cigar box. On the four stringer I built, the box size is: 7" x 10 1/8' x2 1/8.

The cigar box is a spanish cedar Jamie Garcia. It has regular pick ups so I'm not depending on a piezo to sound good, acoustically speaking.

Absolutely! Scale length determines bridge placement.

Sorry about my slow response I haven't been on the forum for quite a while.

Best of Luck!

Any box can make a nice guitar. Sometimes it becomes a uke or a short scale. Be creative with what you have access to and dont worry. There is no wrong with these pieces.
