What! An air cigar box guitar builders competition. Fantastic idea. Shall we see if we can get Ben and Dan interested? I'm sure Ben can come up with some air prizes.
we could have some really awesome prizes ,and the builds would be sublime. Lets's do it...No Rules...RIGHT?!
Sounds good to me. Competition will be fierce though.
He was doing pretty good, too. It sounded like John Lennon's "Imagine..."
