PJD Strings Cigar Box Guitars

#70 is complete! Interesting history on this box… it is a 1935 Muriel Senators box that was given to my neighbor by her grandfather when she was just a child. The box was in bad shape and had been used as a keepsake box for many, many years. She gave it to me to use for a CBG. After careful light cleaning, stabilizing the paper and wood with superglue and lacquer, I was able to create this 3 string CBG. Tuned to GDG, it sounds great. I included a reverb spring in the box, piezo pickup with oak neck, gold tuners and gold screen sound holes. Upon her return from a short vacation I presented her grandfather’s 90 year old cigar box back to her as a family keepsake that can be passed down to her children…. Some boxes are not meant to be sold and played, they are to be cherished….Thank you Rose for letting me preserve a small piece of your family’s history.

If you’re up/down to Pomme de Terre/Hermitage this holiday weekend, stop in and see Terry Rusty Bucket Boutique! She has 4 of my guitars on display and for sale!

I am happy to announce that I have a store that is displaying and selling my guitars. If you are on Hwy 54 passing through Hermitage Mo, stop by and take a look. Thank you Terry for your support!
