3 String Cigar Box Guitar

Tuned to open E (EBE)

This cigar box guitar is super cool.

The box is really big...14 x 7.5 x 1.5. I have made a few with these cigar boxes before but the neck would be too short because of the size of the box. To solve that problem, I have added a tail piece to move the bridge further up the box. It has 14 frets & sounds great.
