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.

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.
