Hello Mal. I think you could use the box to make a resonator. This box was about that deep.

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.

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..!
