Gitty" Baker on October 7, 2012 at 2:08am: Carlos (Carlito) Fuente, Jr., head of the Arturo Fuente cigar company (and thereby one of the biggest celebrities of the cigar world), was good enough to sign and play a few licks on one of our C. B. Gitty 6-string electric CBGS featuring a Fuente Lost City cigar box.
