Build inspired mainly by ‪@PuckettCigarBoxGuitar‬
But, I learned a lot about CBG building from also watching:
‪@SouthernFireGuitars‬ for back angle and bridge making
‪@ChickenboneJohn‬ for in-depth back angle video, especially
Supplies for building CBGs: ‪@Cbgitty‬
I have also built a few 6-string acoustic guitars, so having that foundation helped immensely as well.
Here is the longer 4-part series on this whole build with detail and my thoughts at almost every step:
Part 1: • Cigar Box Guitar Build...
Part 2: • Cigar Box Guitar Build...
Part 3: • Cigar Box Guitar Build...
Part 4: • Cigar Box Guitar Build...

Very nice. The slide neck is something you don't often see, reminds me of a morin khuur.

I found me in the video! Great work, Chris! I've wanted to build a cigar box guitar for a long time. It's still on my list.

@CMRWoodworks 6 месяцев назад

It’s definitely fun. It’s like building a guitar, but with a lot less pucker factor at every step, lol!

@red58impala 6 месяцев назад

Love it! I know it is less complicated than your acoustic builds but I am curious... What guitar building skills do you think someone could gain from making CBGs?

@CMRWoodworks 6 месяцев назад

Thanks! I think the basics of lutherie can be learned making CBGs. For example, if one were to make one kinda like the one I did, one would learn how to cut and glue up a scarf joint, laminate veneers, true up surfaces, scale length, neck carving, fret slotting and installing, making a nut, how intonation works, and various other handtool related tasks. Building an acoustic guitar involves all those things, so it would definitely help to have done some of them, even if on a smaller scale. Plus, building CBGs is much much less costly than building a regular guitar, at least for me it is based on the guitars I have made so far. Thanks for watching and for the comment!

@red58impala 6 месяцев назад

@@CMRWoodworks Thank you for the thoughtful and thorough response. I want to build an acoustic guitar at some point, but I'm thinking I should build some skills first and this looks like the perfect platform to hone those skills. Thanks again!

Hi man, awesome video, I have a question, what type of wood did you use to made the neck?

@CMRWoodworks 3 месяца назад

I used a piece of red oak from Lowe’s.

@BUD14MAN 4 месяца назад

very nice build, what was you choice of strings?

@CMRWoodworks 4 месяца назад

They were Southbound strings, if I remember correctly. I showed a screenshot of them in one of the videos of this build. This video was a compilation of a 4-part series that goes into more detail at each step.

Hello, beautiful guitar, how much do you sell it for?

@CMRWoodworks 3 месяца назад

This one was not for sale. I made it for myself.

Question, is it left handed or is my ocd kicking with the box and fretboard upside down..

@CMRWoodworks 2 месяца назад

It‘s a righty. I didn‘t pay attention to how I oriented things, lol. In fact, I didn‘t notice the box wad upside down until I was almost done with the build😅
