Location: Ct./ USA | When I grow up I wanna work in a guitar factory. To do a daily gig. Then I can buy lots of musical instruments and be an at home rock star, real life might suck, but even home made music takes pratice. Wake me up in 10 years. |

Location: GA USA | The cool thing about making a cigar box guitar is that you don't really have to be a budding luthier. I'm not any kind of luthier or woodworker, but mine turned out pretty well. It sounds cool, and is easy and fun to play. |

For the budding Luthiers: There is this alternative option...
