    I'm upgrading the neck on my strat and plan to use my old neck on a 6 string box build using a Hawaiian chocolate box, with a similar pickup (mine's black not gold). This video helps me to see how to approach my build. Fantastic job on the neck and rest of the guitar, really good.

    My cigar box that im getting is gonna sound something like yours with TWO double lipstick pickups, and its only 150$! I've never owned a guitar but I fell in love with cigar boxes and hearing you shred on the distortion pedal gives me hope as someone who wants to play metal and folk punk. I gotta snatch this thing up today!

    I build 3 string cigar box guitars and it's great to see you build one for a competition (though you know 6 strings ARE 3 strings too many)...
    The through box block is a bit of overkill imho 😆 also, an advantage of 3 strings is you don't need a truss rod..
    Nice fret markers.. I occasionally use superglue and baking soda, built up and sanded flat it has a mother-of-pearl look...
    All in all a great build!! Very precise and clean! And I love all your jigs especially the double yardstick neck/bridge aligner!

    • @-jank-willson
      @-jank-willson Год назад +1

      4 string (tenor) CBG's are the best! 6 strings are 2 strings too many, 3 strings are one string too few.

    • @-jank-willson
      @-jank-willson Год назад +1

      Also if you have a 6-stringer just pair up the strings (with a modified nut and bridge) so it is 3 courses of 2 strings (like a 12-string guitar). 3 string/course instruments are so easy to play, whether they be CBG's, Basses, Dulicimers, Balalikas, Strumsticks, or 3-string Banjos

    I'll be honest Jeff, I saw cigar box and I was like "Oh Gee whiz, Really?"👀 😧BUT😧 THIS is a really good looking build, you dont see CBG's that look thus nice. Great job, and a really classy looking build. Now, can you buy your demo guy a ProCo Rat plug in for whatever digital amp modeler he uses so it can sound like real distortion 🤣😂🤣🍻 those Ampfx digital sounds are so bad😉👍🏼🇺🇸

      Thank you! This is a brand new build. You can typically get cigar boxes from a cigar store. If you just go in and ask, a lot of times you can buy them pretty cheap, or in some cases, you might get some for free.

    I notice that you don't seem to use locating pins when gluing the fret board on. It looks like an easy way to insure that it doesn't slip I wonder why you don't use locating pins?

    • @homebuiltshop
      @homebuiltshop  2 года назад

      I've tried pins on several builds and it does help with slipping. I don't like the processes I've tried so far and the extra work of drilling and fitting the pins doesn't save me enough time to justify using them. I will keep trying out different methods but for now, this is the fastest way for me. I just make sure it doesn't slip and monitor it closely until the glue sets.

    • @joseislanio8910
      @joseislanio8910 2 года назад

      An easier way is just to use some table salt on the glue. It doesn't compromise the strength, and it "disappears" as it's soluble in the glue.
