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).: Hi my name is Mella and Im a Cigar Box Guitar Addict! I adore cigar box guitar for the simplicity, rawness and individuality of each hand made gem! I love when I play them to a crowd and watch their amazement at how much sound a little box can make. I learn more and more every day...

I perform regularly with my band, Barrel Dawg and we've released a few original songs featuring Cigar Box Guitars!

What works best is to click 'share' below the video on youtube. Click 'embed' Copy the embed code. Go to CBN/videos/ Add/ choose the youtube videos option and paste the embed code there. Load it up.
