Cedar Wood Corona 3 String Fretted Acoustic/Electric Cigar Box Guitar. Great Sound. Please have a listen below.......... This is a very beautiful and striking looking guitar. It sounds as good as it looks. Great depth, tone and sustain. ....Treat yourself to a slice of "Americana" I have been a craftsman and guitar builder many years. I found my love for Cigar Box Guitars in the last 10 years. I set out to be among the best in building these guitars in the UK, with value for money. Also as a musician I have toured the UK and the USA along with Europe. In 2006 the BBC did a short documentary on me and my music whilst touring and gigging in New York. Before starting to build cigar box guitars (CBGs) I did a lot of research in the States and also here in the UK. It was quite simple....to build Cigar Box Guitars that not only sounded great but would also last a lifetime. I have stripped many guitars back to the bare bones and rebuilt them to make them sound as good as they could ever possibly be. It seemed a natural step to build my own. It is in my interest and of course your interest, for me to offer a quality service. If for any reason you are not happy with your purchase, please contact me first before leaving any negative feedback. Please remember these are used cigar boxes so some may have some minor marks or irregularities. Although this cigar box guitar is in pretty much great condition. Please remember, its very easy to take a nice photograph of a cigar box guitar. I would never personally buy a guitar without hearing it first.
