Cigar Box Guitar
A little something I've been working on.

Arturo Fuente King B Cigar Box
Gretch humbuckers
and everything else is pretty much no name ebay stuff

Fun little project... more fun with the proper tools (as you'll see on the inside)... But it sounds suprisingly good! Really good actually (pat on back).
