How did you learn about Cigar Box Nation?: internet

How many instruments have you built so far?: 3

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"m fascinated by the creativity shown in the variety of objects people have re purposed into musical instruments. Its art but the real value is the unique voice each instrument possesses once its been found. Regardless of the skill of the builder.
