AGP #502 – “Davidoff”4 String Fretless Cigar Box Guitar584.2mm / 23 inchesStrings : .034NW/.022PS/.017PS/ .011PSTunings: C G c gSomething a little different from #AGP, I don’t do many actual Cigar Box Builds these days, especially 4 Stringers, and haven’t Rounded the back of a Neck for a while, so after seeing and hearing a lot of good things about the Shinto Rasps used by other builders, I finally purchased one, and used it on this Build, Luv it, a bit quicker than the Spoke Shave I usually use.The “Davidoff” Cigar Box was bought a few months back along with a “Partagas” Box (which is currently on the bench) for $21.25 each, which is cheap by our Aussie Cigar Box Starved Country’s Standards.The Neck is Tasmanian Oak, recycled of course!, the Box and Neck were given 3 coats of what is known as Waxy Button Shellac.A 9.1k Humbucker is wired through Vol and Tone to the Output Jack. :-)
