Reviews
This delightful book by Blues musician Shane Speal not only contains detailed instructions for how to make your own cigar box guitar, but wonderful stories about the Blues musicians that Speal has played with during his career and their handmade instruments. Speal carefully explains the why and how these instruments work, in spite of being made of inexpensive, common materials. Want to make an electric instrument? Speal also includes a section on electric guitars. The book has many crisp, clear photographs to guide interested crafters. A must-buy for public libraries that host MakerSpaces., Musician Speal shares his decades of experience in building, playing, and customizing classic DIY instruments in this delightful guide. It was hearing Jimi Hendrix's "Red House" that caused him to abandon his beloved thrash metal and punk, and go down a bluesy rabbit hole, eventually leading to cigar box guitars. Readers will learn not only how to assemble and play the basic three-string model, but how to customize it, whether by making sound holes using furnace grates, adding text to the neck with a woodburning tool, or installing an electrical pickup. Ideas for further customization, such as using a paint-can lid for an even more distinct tone, are also detailed, as are descriptions of additional DIY stringed instruments like a one-stringed violin, electric stand-up washtub bass, and even a microphone made out of a beer can, all accompanied by clear instructions, shopping lists, and plenty of helpful photos. Speal makes no pretense of having discovered the cigar box guitar all by himself, citing numerous articles and anecdotes that testify to the instrument's well-established place in American music history. His passion for and obvious love of his instrument of choice shines through in this terrific study., With the stunning imagery, great stories, and Speal's accompanying YouTube videos, falling in love with cigar box guitars isn't hard to do.

Amazing buy. Both the engine and cars at an amazing price. Buy from this seller. All these other sellers are pirates and thieves. This guy was genuine and reasonable. Thanks for an amazing buy.

  • Great instruction manual.

    I'm a professional welder and fabricator, I know when instructions are good, this book is a good one. Lots of photos, tips, hands on techniques. I bought one for my son that is into woodworking and one for me, my retirement is approaching and I want to do a few for kicks. If you doubt what can be done with one of these guitars check out videos on youtube. All in all the book is a good read even if you don't build a guitar, if you do, this will serve you well.

  • Highly Recommended

    An awesome book. Some technical "how to" books can be dry and boring. Not this book. Not only does it contain technical instructions on how to build cigar box guitars and other instruments (like beer can microphones); it is also filled with tons of color pictures, little historic snippets, and stories. Overall I found it very well written and entertaining.
