I made one of these back in April for a Physics project when we were covering sound waves. The project was really rushed and I made it over a weekend very quickly, it was playable but pretty poor quality. I ended up giving to my science teacher who thought it was awesome. I made a second one that has taken weeks to do and I just finished it. Very cool looking, action is on the high side but I figure if I open tune it and get a slide and I can play some fun stuff on it:






what you guys think?
I got some more pictures and I'll put them up if anyone wants to see more of it.

coool, there was a guy on Colbert last night that made one of these. to complete the set he had a cigar box amp to go with it.

I like the cigar box guitars and hope to have one some day. Kinda like this:

That was awesome! Wish I had the action on mine low enough to do something like that. Maybe when I change strings I can file down the bridge and nut pieces to allow it. That was a pretty cool vid!

You need a zero fret. Uncle Semie would have done it!

I've got at least two more I want to build and one will be an electric cigar box guitar and that one I'll definetly try to make a zero fret on! I just didn't have the supplies or funding for something like that this second time around.
