A cigar box guitar tutorial was the first project video of this kind I ever filmed. That was 4 years ago. I've always wanted to build a fretted version from the ground up, and for this video I finally got around to it. I hope you enjoy! The goal I set for the design was to use only tools and materials that can be purchased at a local hardware store, other than a cigar box and guitar strings. Below are the parts and tools used for this project. I occasionally overlook an item in a video this long so let me know if you notice anything missing from the lists. If you try this project be sure to let me know! I would love to see a video of your own cigar box guitars. Tools: ----------------------------------------------------- Tape Measure Pen/Pencil Hand Saw Hammer(Mallet)/Chisel Drill w/Bits Sand Paper/Sanding Block Fine Grain File Gel Super Glue Tape Razor Paste Wax (optional) Materials: ----------------------------------------------------- 1” x 3” Maple Plank (must not be warped) Wood Cigar Box 1 1/2” Inside Corner Brace (x3) 4” Eye Bolts/Nuts (x3) Door Hinge Pin Fencing Staples 1 1/2” Finish Nails (x12) #18 x 5/8” Pins (x3) Acoustic Guitar Strings Total build time should be around 8 hours, so the project can fit comfortably into a weekend. The cost of the materials not including any of the tools is about $35. Not bad for a guitar! I suspect I am going to receive quite a few comments saying I should have used wing nuts on the tuners so a wrench wouldn't be required, and that was initially my plan. The bolts are a little too close together on my model for wing nuts to spin without hitting each other, but feel free to try it yourself. If you would like to build a guitar with a different scale length than 24" you can use this website to calculate fret measurements: ​http://www.harpkit.com/category/fretcalc.html The first song I play in this video is 'Prelude to Cello Suite No.1' by Bach. The later songs are improvised blues. I was in drop D tuning. I also want to give a shout out to one of my favorite song covers played on a frettless Cigar Box Guitar, check this out if you want to see how well a CBG can be played: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iIIEhH7xOXg
