Cigar Box Guitar Headquarters - CBG HQ

latest build..

just finished this yesterday.

sounds really nice.beechwood neck with black walnut fret board with frets.

bone what ever you call it? I've used a fancy hinge to hold the strings.piezo pickup etc.

the skull is my trade mark if you like.

the surface of the main body is very shiny almost like the real thing.

it had about 4 heavy coats of lacquer ,rubbed down with wet/dry and finished with rubbing compound and polish.

very pleased with the results
