Number 2. The Wedge upgraded to real tuners and an extra string.





License plates, ammo cans oh my.
This is the one that started my interest in building Cigar Box Guitars. Nuts, bolts and thumb screws for tuners. The hardware store special. A shout out to one of the best hardware stores around E.L. Spear in Rockland, Maine.

Number 3. This one was my first real cigar box guitar. A four string slide that now belongs to my friend Ernie Cochran who still weathers the cold Maine winters.

Moving to Florida has enabled me to sell my craft at local fairs in and around Sebastian FLA.These four are the first ones I ever sold!! Not for much but still sold.

The next two are my first fretted CBGs. Two years later I got to see the Mouton Cadet and it's owner at the First Annual Cigar Box Festival at Summer Crush Winery in Fort Pierce FLA. How cool is that?
