This kit contains all of the hardware and parts you need to build your Cigar Box Guitar (CBG), except for the 1 x 2 x 34-inch hardwood neck, which can be easily found at any lumber/hardware store (we don't include a neck because it would significantly increase the shipping). This kit includes 1 paper-covered cigar box (a nice good-sized one perfect for a CBG), a 3-string set of Acoustic Medium CBG strings, 3 economy open-gear tuners with bushings and screws, 8 shiny brass box corners with screws, (4) 1-inch screened brass grommets for use as sound hole inserts, (2) 3/8-inch x 1 1/2-inch threaded rod lengths for use as the nut and bridge, (1) brass tailpiece hinge, and our exclusive 26-page assembly instructions booklet, chock full of detailed, annotated photos and great down-to-earth how-to instructions. Please note that the copper pipe slide and guitar pick are shown for illustrative purposes only and are not included in this kit, nor is the maple neck shown in the picture. Also please note that you may not receive the exact cigar boxes shown in these photos, but you will definitely receive a fine, decorative, good-sized box perfect for use as the body of a CBG. The cigar box may be partly constructed from hardboard instead of wood, but don't worry - hardboard boxes sound great as CBGs! We created our assembly instructions document specifically with the first-time builder in mind; it is chock-full of clear, detailed annotated photos and clear step-by-step how-to information, and will clearly guide you though the process of assembling, stringing and tuning your new CBG. It even has a short section to help get you playing your first tunes on it!

- Includes guitar tuners, strings, and other hard-to-find hardware
- Full 26-page assembly how-to guide included, packed with detailed photos
- Requires only basic hand or power tools and woodworking skills to build
- A perfect and easy way to build a slide-style (unfretted) cigar box guitar!
