Usually GDG, DAD, CGC. I have about 5 more to finish up. Ive seen crazy things used to make these. They are so much fun and really get that delta sound. Ill dig up some others ive made and post

If I ever had a martin again I would just keep getting it repaired if it needed it, Gibson can kiss my  I was never so turned off by a company that didn't give 2 cents about their customers. I bought a beautiful SG  two years ago and a week after I had it I returned it. Quality control was awful and their representative at store couldn't care less about my problem and admitted they have a problem. I would love a old Gibson but I aint loaded.
Just a few more

Cool stuff....! what brand of cigars do you recommend ?   I like Dutch Masters Panatellas !

Im no expert on cigars but I like mellow cigars. I like punch, cohiba, maduro and the Indian tabac.

I noticed that some have frets & some don't......or is the fret-less one not finished ?  Being a steel guitar player, I was curious......

I've built quite a few lap steel guitars, and I use plastic for the "fret" boards, with the fret markings etc, cut into the plastic on a CNC that my buddy has in his shop. Fret scales are on the net, for various scale lengths.
  Your "cigar boxes" are cool !
