So I finally built one of them there cigar box guitars. I’m not much of a handyman and I am not sure what most of the tools are even called that I used, but here is my creation. First and foremost, I want to thank Ivan for the destructions over at cigarboxguitars.com. I won’t say I followed his plans exactly, but they really helped me get going on this project. Here is a picture of the neck. I used nails with their heads and tails trimmed off. Here is a picture of the beast in all its glory - you can barely see the input jack, but it’s there - its electric. I’m hopin I can learn some Iron Maiden on it so I can rock out my employers xmas party. I can picture myself blazin a little “2 Minutes to Midnight” or “Aces High” on this bad boy. Oh well, thats all I got.
