How did you learn about Cigar Box Nation?

from a friend

How many instruments have you built so far?

working on my first one.

What do you find most interesting about cigar box guitars? (If you do not enter at least one meaningful sentence, your membership may be rejected as a spam/bot fake account).

As a lefty, I have tried to learn right handed guitar for 45 years. All I want is to play the blues. As kid I was always tinkering with mechanical things. When I saw a cigarbox guitar at a farmers market I was hooked by its raw simplicity! I can now build a lefty guitar myself to my own specs! I can play an instrument as unique or simple as I want. I can do it affordably. I love vintage Americana and enjoy searching flea markets for ideas. I believe this hobby is for me and with seven leftys in the family, it will now be easy for them to learn to play an instrument as special as they are.
