Hey Doc, I am guessing where you got the RYJ boxes is from a cigar/smoke shop. If that is correct do you find them pretty open to selling empty boxes?
Doc Oakroot said:Actually Romeo Y Julieta is a cigar brand and they make a very wide variety of cigars in a wide variety of boxes. I happen to have quite a few RyJ boxes at the moment, because the store where I got boxes recently sells a lot of them. Some are square and deep, some are pretty normal paper-covered boxes. The box for my recent Blues Jam Special CBG is a RyJ Medallas de Oro all wood box with a golden colored figured veneer top - very cool looking (the top is the back on my guitar so not in any of my photos).
Michael Carnright said:Man! I was stunned at the amount of cigar boxes for sale on ebay! I will check out home depot ASAP. Thanks for the info on Romeo Y Julietta box.
Jkevn said:Romeo Y Julietta boxes are cigar boxes. They are usually more square and deeper than what one would use for guitar making. I'm sure the wood to make boxes is available at Home Depot and the like. 3/16 or thinner plywood, or even luan type panels are in 4x8 or 2x4 sheets. "wood cigar box" or "Craft box" on ebay will keep you busy for a while.
Hollow-core doors are skinned with thin plywood, usually with a nice birch or oak face on the outside. They aren't too hard to pull apart and can be found very cheap or free.
