Profile Information

How did you learn about Cigar Box Nation?: I live in York Pa.

How many instruments have you built so far?: Own two that I bought,working on a few of my own.I'm up to 15 builds so far.

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).: The simplicity !
Just finished a few projects I had in mind.
I'm more convinced than ever that simple is the
way to go.I learned a lot making the first batch
and hope I can share what I have learned with
any of my friends that would like to make a piece
of history.
Thanks to Cigar Box Nation and some of their members
and their posts I can finally play things that actually sound like songs people recognize.
