Thank you for your comment.  My family originated from Naples, Italy back in the early 20th Century!!!  My grandfather was Donato Gratziano.  They changed his name to Mike Speal when he came to America and couldn't speak the language.

I would love to visit Naples some day!

Hello! My name is Kevin M. Kraft, founder of the annual Kansas City Cigar Box Guitar Festival. This year's event will take place on August 26th, and once again I am accepting cigar box guitars and cigar box guitar-related donation, which will be raffled off during the festival, the proceeds to benefit Kansas City's Blues in the Schools program. If you have a guitar, accessory, CD, DVD--anything related to cigar box guitars that you would like to donate, please contact me at the Cigar Box Nation or email me at kevinmkraft@juno.com  to learn where to send it.

 

Thanks for you time and consideration.

 

- Kevin

It is a goofy somewhat ridiculous change of the word neat. I use it for situations that are above and beyond using the term neat, for something that is very good. I liked the video of you and your friends it was a cool piece of music and video. I would assume that you are Mr. Iodice?

Hello, Leonardo!

How are you coming on your cigar box guitar? Can I help in any way?

As you may have already found, there are many designs and plans here at the Nation. Look at them all and decide which works best for you. I don't have any drawings of my own for my method of building. but I'm happy to answer any questions I can to help you along.

Hope this finds you well!

Saw you were looking for tuning a 5 string. I used a keith richards tuning on my 5 string and I really like it. I think the vid is on my page- its the one with the license plate. I believe Keith used to take the low "e" off his guitar and then tune the A down to "G". He may have also tuned the high "e" down, but not sure, its been awhile.
