Being a guitarist, I'm slightly ashamed that I've never heard of cigar box guitars. Apparently they are a cheap way to make a musical instrument, and amazingly enough, have a great tone. I was totally unaware of them for some reason. I guess I've been living in a closet somewhere. While there aren't a lot of items on the "most watched" list, there are a few highly watched parts for cigar box guitars. So if you are in the market for cigar box parts, take a look at whats-hot-weekly.com. If you decide you aren't in the mood to build one of these gems, you can also find a lot of cigar box guitars on eBay.
If you've never heard of cigar box guitars, you may be in for a treat. Search YouTube for some videos of them in action. Some sound pretty good.
