A little bit about cigar box instruments
While these instruments are crafted from recycled cigar boxes, and other recycled, repurposed or found materials, they are not a toy.
The thin Spanish cedar the cigar boxes are made from, has many qualities that make them ideal for making music. It has a very soft pleasant aroma, is insect-repelling, is not affected by changes in humidity. And, when carefully and lovingly built into an instrument will produce a warm, wonderfully romantic sound.
In the forests of Central America, Spanish cedar has been used for making instruments for a very long time. For all the reasons it makes a very good cigar box, Spanish Cedar makes a very resonant guitar, or cigar box ukulele.
