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).
Primitive, raw funk and howling, moaning juju at my fingertips! I love recycling and repurposing these old boxes and 'found objects' and (hopefully) transforming them into works of functional, musical art. Plus, building them keeps me from roaming the streets at night.
