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).
I like the challenge of building them because all boxes are different and there is no “right” way. They are “folk art” and they are also real instruments. Nothing like playing an instrument that you made yourself! Also, fun to explore different ways of playing and different tunings.
