A little bit of info on the box which made a sharp lookin' guitar. The Aston VSG (Virgin Sun Grown) cigars were unveiled in 1999 and has become one of the companies most successful products. In looking into the history of Ashton VSG Cigars......, a few adjectives appeared to show up as words I would use to describe this CBG......unforgettable richness, balanced, potent...check out the photos in this album. $250. Can be purchased on snowdenguitars.com

Music by Mike Snowden in an episode of The Garage by Steve Butler

http://stevebutlerfurniture.blogspot.com/2011/07/episode-four-cigar-box-guitar.html

The Garage is a show about being creative and making objects hosted by Steve Butler. On a recent episode he builds a Cigar Box Guitar (check out the above link). The show is mainly shown in the the upper northeast however I am told a local Fulton station has 'picked' up the show. Episodes can also be seen on youtube. Let me know if anyone 'comes across' the segment. The show is on public access channels.

Cigar Box Guitars added to the website.

Added a few Cigar Box Guitars to the website. Old 3 Holes is a 'good one' created from a Cohiba Cigar Box. The Old 3 holes Cohiba Cigar Box Guitar has a killer tone! The fret board has a nice walnut and maple combination of wood... Looks, plays and sounds great!
