Sweet Mist Tobacco CTG

Sweet Mist Fine Cut Tobacco CTG (Cigar Tin Guitar). The tin was made for the Scotten-Dillon Tobacco Company of Detroit, Mich around the late 1800's to early 1900's. 18" scale, oak neck/heel/fretboard unibody, walnut fret dots, piezo under the bridge in the neckstock. I'm really pleased with the way this sounds amped up.

    Thank You Gdawg! Dropping that cutting wheel on a high dollar 100+ year old tin is something else, you kind of just hold your breathe and hope it goes right. Measure twice and cut once is what my Father always said :-)

  • Awesome Maddog! I am in the middle of a build using a plug tobacco box from the 1890's. It makes you nervous cutting on something that old but it makes such a cool git!

  • Awesome !!

  • It was destined to be Turtle :-) Thanks man!
