Just goes to show you that with a good neck, tuning machines, pickups and bridge and saddle, the rest is totally optional. What a gorgeous instrument!

I don't know how missed this, but this is about the coolest thing I've seen and heard in a while. Thank for making my day just a little nicer.

Oh, man! That little guitar is just plain gorgeous! It's got class, looks and a great sound. And, contrary to what some may think... I love the fact that it's a 6 string. Great work and great playing!

Thanks for that comment James!

Wear a mask brah. Went through years of breathing saw dust when I realized the shit was killing me! Beautiful work my brother.

Awesome. A rare example of the double humbucking Tobaccecaster. I like that box, and I do enjoy a Monte Cristo cigar.

Great build, finish beautiful. Sound excellent. I don't pick at original builds. Creativity bothers some people. Don't change a thing and don't listen to people who can't think out of the box. That's what it is all about. Being an individual. Thanks for sharing.

Absolutely beautiful in every respect. Bravo!!

Stunning! A beautiful instrument and a joy to watch it being made.

Wow! Man, you are great!) cool guitar!

Looks great!! Let’s hear it clean with no reverb.

Gorgeous and sounds great too. Thanks for sharing.

I admire you, Sir. Outstanding instrument and playing style.

Can you do a few riffs without the reverb, delay etc? I’d like to hear what it really sounds like. It does look great tho

Grate video. You did a very good job on your cigar box guitar. Thanks for the video!!!!!!!

Very Nice 👍👍

Gorgeous work. Thanks for sharing

Awesome! Looks and sounds great!

That was amazing! You are such a craftsman!

Beautiful guitar, the Black Keys is a great choice of song for that type of guitar, congrats!

Absolutely fantastic guitar!! you rock! Sounds incredible and you r play is cool!

It looks great. The only issues are it has knobs, 3 extra strings, frets, and…a cigar box. You don’t need any of those for the perfect CBG!

Looks like a balalaika, a Russian folk instrument. Their bodies are kinda triangular, and come in both three string and six string varieties. Great job! As I get further interested in "cigar box" instruments, I'm learning more about other traditional folk instruments.

Beautiful build

Wonderful Job !

Beautifully thought out. Congratulations on great build.

Nice guitar, great sound. ...

Sounds great. But not the crunchy raunchy sounds of a cigar box guitar, but more like a high-quality hollow body! That’s not any kind of criticism! It turned out spectacular! Definitely the upper level of CBC

Great build, I just built my first hubcap guitar and I used a six string neck too. I wanted it to play like a regular six string, plus I can't play slide like a lot of people do on cigar box guitars.

Would like to see some of your work Rick CBG. Can you leave a link? Any for sale?

Exceptionally cool and extremely well done. It' sounds great too and it's a work of art. The only very minor thing that sticks in the back of my mind is that you've made such a fancy guitar that it's really not very much in the tradtion of cigar box guitars which, after all, were almost always very basic, made out of necessity and with materials found lying around. But who cares? I think of this as a different type of homemade guitar that's based on classic guitar box guitars but no longer in their class. It's taking a very simple thing that's most iconic and important characterist is it's simplicity and making it fancy. It's no longer really a cigar box guitar, IMO, but that makes no difference at all. What's important is that it's REALLY neat and you did a great job making it. That's something I would love to own and play. Really beautiful. I do have the skills to make such a guitar and you've given me some ideas. Thanks for posting this.

Wow damn nice piece man .I bet it sounds as good as it looks to.

Great Idea! Reminds me on Steam punk

it is just pre built neck off a cheap guitar attached to a box ! ! Yes it looks pretty good and sounds pretty good but any guitar will sound pretty good if played through a decent amp . I don't want to knock what this guy did but pretty much anyone could build this it doesn't require any special skills. it isn't a custom built instrument built by a skilled luthier. Let's call it what it is a nice effort by a amatuer. Nothing more .i guess most people are just easily impressed.

Quality 🙂

Sweetness Guitar awesome if you remember any of them or think of any or find them if you could throw the links somewhere here that’d be awesome !!!

No non-amplified acoustic playing? I hate to say it, but with all the effort put into the soundholes (4!), I'd hope they'd be more than decorative. Good thick wood cigar boxes are desirable for being sturdy and durable, but cigar box cardboard makes for suprisingly good soundboards, at least while they last. (This is secret cigar box guitar knowledge. Sh! Don't tell!) Who would have known heavy cardboard and particle board make for good "tonewood"? -Maybe I'm a little jealous of the "coolest CBG in the world". Please don't take this as criticism.

Whatever, man. Any guitarist knows there are many of “awesome” guitars like that out there.

You were good right up until you put that hardware store shit on the back and neck. You should have just glued the wood inside to the box bottom and glued the top on. neck screws and ferrels would have held the whole thing together. I love that box.

not a precise cut anywhere

All kinds of high praise by people in the comments? All you really did was attach a premade guitar neck that came off a cheap second rate guitar to a box ! That doesn't really take any special skills. if you can't build your own neck,do the fret work, etc.you are hardly a skilled luthier. Not knocking what you did .decent enough amatuer effort. Just wondering why so many people seem to be overly impressed by something pretty much anyone could accomplish.this guy has delusions of grandeur because i see he has this listed on ebay, reverb. for $4,000.00 . That is how i found this video. For that $ you can buy a les paul or a strat+tele + nice amp.he'll be waiting years till he finds the 1 person in the world stupid enough to pay that for a amatuer built instrument that is nothing but a B grade neck attached to a box. Realistically it is worth maybe $200.00 On a good day at best.

In my opinion this is click bate. He made a nice looking regular 6 string guitar out of a golf ball and tee case. It's a regular six string guitar with regular guitar pickups and it's not made out of a cigar box. Not taking anything away from the craftsmanship, just saying it's not even remotely a cigar box guitar.
