  I owned a Weissenborn made of koa (sp?) in 1964. I found it in a thrift store for $40. It was the best guitar I’ve had. The sound was fabulous. It changed my life. Until our Bass Player tipped over off his amp and crushed the lower bought. He paid for it’s repair but rebuilding the shattered sides took away much of it’s tone. I was devastated. Stupidly I traded it for a deer rifle. Gary, your Weissbox has that haunting sound. Thanks for the memory.

  a Weissbox is a mixture of Weissenborn and cigar box. the guitar is entirely hollow and is played like a weissenborn and cigar box is for form. the guitar was made by my luthier with my ideas.

  Very western, Gary.  Good!

  Ray, Weissenborn guitars are lap acoustic guitars in a traditional guitar shape, but the necks, I believe' are large and hollow to get more sound and a rather special sound.   Gary's guitar appears to be a big box made with a Weissenborn style neck.

   Another nice one, Gary. What is "Weissbox"? Is that the guitar, and did you build this? I really like this music.
