What do you find most interesting about cigar box guitars? (If you do not enter something meaningful here (at least one sentence long), your membership may be rejected as a spam/bot fake account).
Building something that is as beautiful as fun to play. Mixing skills to make every instrument unique. Using newly learned techniques to complete projects. Recycling unused objects/hardware into pieces of art...

Love to round necks, carve headstocks and stain wood. I especially like 3 strings Cigar Box Guitars and have a taste for collector/special edition boxes.

    Once again welcome! Every time I start a new project I feel like a beginner. I like it that way, because I always look for mistakes that can easily become routine. You and about 10,000 other builders myself included are looking for those special box's, the Holy Grail of CBGs.

    Hi Simon. A pleasure to be your friend.  You have an eye for design and style.  Your builds have character.

    Regards, Bob.
