Comment by Richard Sanabia on November 17, 2010 at 3:13am: Hi Rick. I carry one to a lot of jams, and I am surprised that more people haven't seen one. Even instruments like autoharps and Cajun accordions aren't seen either.

Comment by Rick Walker on November 17, 2010 at 2:50am: Thanks for your comment on the Punch viola. I built it so long ago I'd almost forgotten. I just got done looking at your builds and they are very nice indeed. Especially like this little tenor guitar! It still seems odd to me that so many people around these parts have never even seen a cigar box instrument. You'd think they'd be more popular here in Tennessee. Keep up the good work!

Comment by BenBob on May 17, 2010 at 5:20pm: Looks great, did you make the box out of birch ply?
