WANT TO BUILD YOUR OWN CIGAR BOX GUITAR?

Here’s where the fun starts...
I’m now selling handmade, engraved cigar boxes ready to be turned into your own CBG.

No need to spend hours hunting down a decent box, carefully cutting it up and then discovering you’ve just ruined the bloody thing (I know from my own experience!!!!)

These are ready-to-build boxes, individually handmade and engraved, you supply the neck, hardware, electronics......and I’ll supply the box.

Please note that my boxes are all made from reclaimed wood so there will be screw/nail/knot holes etc which all adds to the character!!

Perfect for:
- DIY CBG builders
- First-time builders
- Experienced tinkerers

Here's the first 2, with more to follow! The boxes are approx (h) 290mm x (w) 190mm x (D) 60mm

All boxes are £25 including delivery (UK only)

DM for more info........👍🏻🤟🏻
