When I can't Ride I Work Wood
when I'm not working or riding my bike I make these for fun.
this is my 6th build. this is by far best sounding guitar and I'll be keeping this one.
any one on here made any of these cigar box guitars??

I like it.
If you stroke it more than twice; you're playing with it.

Here's some of mine:

And check the link (at the bottom) to my cigarbox guitars web too
If you're a player who is a bit 'jaded', I recommend a cigarbox guitar to give you a new buzz. Open tuned, they're great for dead easy drone type improvisations etc.

John, have you ever made a short backrest for an old Goldwing? I recently acquired a 78 and can't find one anywhere. I can make the pad....
