Unless the top is cardboard on them I think they are all good. My dad has some old ones and a few have cardboard with a wood grain label on them, and some with the fake wood grain are real wood under it.<br />

Sounds good to me, then cardboard ( or paper labeled) are my favorite, being a graphic designer of sorts I like the labels. And some of them sound great!<br />

I like to use La Paz Corona Superior boxes wich hold's 25 tubed cigars whenever i can get them. They are big! In cm's it's 32cm x 23cm x 5cm, in inches that would be 12.6in x 9.01in x 1.97in. The top is a thin solid wood (0.3-4 mm/0.16 in) and the box itself is built like a rock with fingerjointed sides so ithey make pretty good acoustic's for more than 3 string's.<br />
<br />
And they are just plain beautifull boxes<br />
