Here's my first cigar box guitar. Macanudo box, poplar neck, tuners from a ukulele I got for my sixth birthday.

Nice guitar and good playing. It does have a fine tone.

Nice job, nice git.   Love the lock jaw sound hole cover.   Ooh, sounds good and you are playing well too.

Thanks everybody! I'll shoot for a longer video next time. I'm a bit under the weather this week, but I've got a second CBG ready to demo. It turned out too quiet (smaller box), but I learned a few things. I'll make a vid once I'm semi-healthy again.
