I’m a hack when it comes to playin but I’ve had a blast making and hacking on 3 and 4 string cigar box guitars. Lest you scoff, have a listen to what one can sound like in the hands of a real player:

I scoff at nothing...Incredible playing and have always wanted to make a cigar box guitar.
I am fascinated by cigar box guitars. Most of the general public isn’t aware of these. Of course, Bo Diddley did not randomly select his odd guitar shape. All the poor musicians had to learn on home made cigar box guitars!!!
Thanks for posting the video link, very cool.
