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).
A community plus a do-it-yourself approach is what makes a genre great. I love stonermetal, goofy genre music, underground hard rock, and old timey musics. Building a CBG lets you try out every tool in the toolshed. Plus, any hobby that lets you lust after the next cool new thing to try is an automatic win.
