Comment by Jim Mitchell on February 4, 2011 at 10:16am: Hello Mal. I think you could use the box to make a resonator. This box was about that deep.

Comment by Jim Mitchell on January 28, 2011 at 10:57am: Hello here is a 4 string reso that I built from a 2 bottle wine box this is the one that Keni Lee Burgess plays in his Terraplane Blues video on YouTube.

Comment by legnahkra on January 3, 2011 at 9:04pm: from my experience with a wine box, i can say the sound was beautiful yet very deep... guess it was because of the size of the box. you can go confident and work out a wine box guitar... you won't be disappointed..!
