Very lovely work, Jess! I'm very impressed that this was your first instrument - it looks as though you've been building them for many years! Welcome to CBN!!!! Best, Lana

I have had the same experience Jess. People are amazed that someone can make a great sounding instrument out of a cigar box. I too have gotten great advise from the folks here saving me time and money, which are both in short supply these days. It is a great hobby. I usually get an idea for a new one while working on the one on the bench. There is always a new challenge with each build and as someone here mentioned: our mistakes tend to lead to creative ways to fix them. Good luck and build safely.

Welcome aboard, Jess! You will find lots of helpful folks and information here on all things CBG (CBB, CBU, etc.) Feel free to poke around, ask questions, and post your stuff (photos, recordings, videos, etc.).

Most of all, have fun!
