Bolt-on neck, fretless CBG, with Texas sound hole.

"I love the color contrast on that neck. Very stylish while keeping the CBG traditional."

How many instruments have you built so far?: 12 or so

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).: I enjoy the creative freedom when making cigar box or blues box guitars. I enjoy building acoustic guitars the most because it's always interesting to hear what the instrument truly sounds like. It can be a hit or a miss, but after awhile. You learn what box as sound good or don't sound good based on what kind of wood or material the box is made from.
