Cigar Box Guitars
The popularity of Cigar Box guitars over the last five years has been phenomenal and the best part is that you can make your own at home, totally unique to you. Or, you can head on over to Reverb to check out ones for sale.
What you will find here are some examples of the ones I have made, plans to make your own, links to parts and links to how to play tutorials.
Right now I have turned my interests to Kumiko (Japanese woodworking), but I still have more CB guitars I want to make.
Enjoy the resources.
