Puckett, this video made me teary! Yes, I'm a girl. I've loved the idea of cbg's and previously watched your videos but today was different. I felt a stirring in my spirit. I think the Lord has a future that involves the glorious sound and frame of those sweet guitars. Maybe a jigsaw piece of the puzzle of His plan for me. Thank you for sharing this.

When people start using drills as saws and home depot rulers as fret boards, I know I'm in the right place.

Hey, that stick was free ranging in the universe! No better destiny than to wind up in that phenomenal-sounding guitar! Appreciate the build insights and tips! !!!

Del don't ever stop making videos...you are awesome.

Your videos are never too long. And brother, your playing abilities are beyond amazing. Keep em coming

No matter how bad a day has gone Del Puckett uploads a video and turns it into a great day!!!! And I watched it to the very end, I am Awesome (right?) Your musical demos at the end put a big smile on my face! (I did have to laugh at the procurement of the "abandoned" stick for the neck!)

Very nice! Thank you for showing the details. It sounds great acoustic and electric.

Thanks a lot for your tutorials! Your videos are really usefully for a beginners. I'm from Russia and here almost nobody knows about same guitars so when I wanted to make one I didn't had any information. But now I watching your channel and I hope my guitar will be done! Sorry my English :)

A shiny Romeo box was my second CBG ever made, it's a great box but very heavy, I would love to find more of them. Wish I could send you a picture of it seeing how well it came out. I play it almost every day. Keep up the great work and videos King 👑 Puckett

As a cabinet make I use MDF. The green is usually used to show that a eco friendly glue was used..

Del,your videos are always very informative and inspiring but never to long!

Love the banjo sound

really balanced sound

Just so amazing watching you put together that beautiful cigar box guitar. Wow! Thanks again!!!

Wow! Cool to see the whole process. Great build, love the sound...both accoustic and electric. Thanks for posting!

Thx Again Puck well done Sir .

Your commitment for sharing your knowledge is outstanding. Thank you, Del.

Awesome job

Wow another great build! And awesome playing! Inspirational! Cheers from N.M.🍾🌮🌶

Great, smells a winter project 👍🎸🤠

Man, I just found you. My step-dad started making these before Ahole cancer took him. I want to make one or two of these. Thanks for the insight.

Salut, magnifique ! I love your handwork ! Hallo de France.

We can’t get such a nice box in Holland. Good film.

I love that Jam!! Awesome job on the Guitar!!

thanks for taking all the intimidation out of it! I haven't finished the Master Series yet, but so far my favorite part was watching all the different tools you could use to make the neck! very funny, you drove the point home it doesn't matter what you use to get there as long as you get there

Awesome video. Awesome CBG. And of course, Awesome Dell Puckett 👍🏻😁. 🇺🇸😎

It’s great man keep them coming! A workman worth his due.

I love the sound of this one, very twangy and sharp.

I loved the video! Learn a lot from your beautiful work. earned a lot regarding the different tools out there. I appreciate your work and music.

Nice build. Really enjoyed watching. TIGHT TIGHT TIGHT.

More long videos like this please!

Great video Del!

Enjoyed all the way to the end... You did good Bro!

This one looks cool but sounds amazing! Even dry acoustic sounds clear as a bell. Really enjoyed seeing the whole process in one sitting. And nice to see you talk about layout considerations. Don't remember you covering that before. Thanks for sharing!

Thank you ,altogether a brilliant presentation

20:46 “Have you ever felt the back of a cigar box guitar?” (WHOOSH) 💨 That HAD to go over some heads! ✌️😂

you make such amazing videos, you deserve so many more subs, I love your channel!

I think you are BRILLIANT!

Loved the guitar. I was a little disappointed that there was a lot of things left out in the making.

Wow awesome video. I’m gonna try this at home. I have been wanting to build a guitar for sooo long and this is just the bit of inspiration I needed

That is wonderful, I never knew cigar boxes could make such good sound, I live in spain and we have some serious cigars over here so Im off to the cigar shop and ask for some boxes and have a go making one, I cant play, I can cut wood perfectly as I am a carpenter but my daughter plays a spanish guitar and electric so will be able to tune it and play it for me. I just love the sound it makes. Thanks for the video. Serious music.

Brilliant.. your the Man.. enjoyed your video. 😷👍

Spectacular as always my friend! I await your new vids with eager antici..........pation. 😉

my favourite part of this process would be selling that thing and making some Green

Del, you do a wonderful rendering of Johan Sebastian Bach at times! ...😀..😀...! I often notice it in your fingering! (A Hammond B3 drawbar Organist)....😉...😉...!

Really sweet!

Well done 👍

Always like good build videos.

Hey, Del. It would be wild to build one 'upside down' for traveling. Put the tuners in the body and the string catch at the top of the neck.

Love the builds, plus I ge tto learn so much. Also hope to play what. I built more often too lol, cheers

Love the wine bottles! Everything is better w wine!

Great video man. Awesome hair

Awesome!!!!!! Thanks!!!!!!!

Excellent

Just Excellent. Good work. Sometime would you show details on how you would wire the volume and tone knob. I would appreciate it.

When someone says their shop is a mess... I say but you can see the floor ;)

Make some cauls to use instead of the ruler. Wrap then with shipping tape and glue won't stick to them. You could even use the yardsticks but the shipping tape is key.

Never been first inline before.......... Nice build.

Great video thanks

Actually this is a great sounding CBG. Oh and it looks great.

Oooooh Shiny.......Stay gold pony boy

Have you considered making a cigarbox BASS guitar?

Love your builds. I started a CBG a while back. Everytime I watch a build video I change some of me design. I may have to stop watching videos for a while so I can finish it. 😁 Keep up the good work Del.

i liked n just subbed m8, so keen to play one now..

I think that wood you found was a survey marker

Great stuff, Del. After binge watching your channel over the past couple of days I have a question. Is there significance to the reason why in some builds you leave the 2 or so inches sticking out of the end of the CB and on others you don't? And thanks for putting up some great content!

This video has answered so many of my questions. Thank you so much. Whats that little rift you do at 18:40? I want to know how you do that as it sounds great

Have you stopped using springs for reverb? I noticed many of your latest videos you do not use them. Thanks. Videos and your playing is awesome

Awesome

If anything it was to short! Haha. I wouldn't mind seeing saddle install and stringing it/setting the bridge.

Puckett is my idol!

Brilliant! Love the bike and borrowing the garden stick - was it "planted"? :)

you forgot to tell us how much them dang boxes cost!

Excellent video as always. You are the best as far as I am concerned about helping others perfect the technique of building CBG instruments. The first thing I learned a few years ago from you was how to build that little bridge with the fret wire installed in the top of a piece of wood. I still think those things are one of the best bridges a person can use on one of these instruments and keep them looking like some to the originals. What is the best size piezo that you recommend for a build like this?

Del, one of your most informative videos ever my friend. Quick question, what's the best way to secure nylon strings to a metal cabinet hinge.?

Hi...I love your videos. Do you have a complete build thru that has a scarfed neck. I'm trying to see the process all the way thru

Hi Del, Have you ever used an H. Upmann box from the Dominican Republic? I built my first guitar using this box and it sounds great!

Thanks for the inspiration

I'm smack-dab in the middle of my first build... this was insightful, I hope I don't screw mine up! Still need to get the ol' hot-glue gun...

Hey, great video! Any advice on converting an NES game console? I'm trying to figure out what I should use for the neck.

Enjoy watching your videos. Very informative. What size rotor bit do you use 1/4 or 1/2 in. for the neck?

I've built a couple myself but i kinda winged it... they could have been better... I for some reason thought a 4 string would be better... what's your opinion? I also have had issues with buzzzzzz or hummmm. Got any suggestions to prevent that. Thanks for your step by step video.

Great informative vid. Can anyone tell me what the tuning was please. I rely on the subtitles and they didn't pick that important bit up. Most other vid's don't even mention the strings or the tuning.

I may have a Romeo today. Guy wants too much but we'll see. 20 is high

Very cool build I'm a disabled veteran and I lost the use of my hands several years back it was wondering if you would be interested in making me a guitar electric cigar box Guitar if not it's okay I still enjoyed reading and watching your videos keep up the good work very enjoyable

I personally prefer the longer videos! Do you level crown and polish your frets? I've never seen you do it and your gittys always seem to play perfectly.

You need to consider. Gulf Shores Orange and Daphne Blue :)

What kind of wood is the stick ? Treated white pine ?

I know this is an older video but I am catching up. LOL How does one go about ordering a cigar box guitar from you ??? I am interested in purchasing one of at all possible.

he rly just copped that stick

Question for Del or anyone else watching: I just tried to glue a grommet to cover a sound hole with super glue and it didn't work out. Maybe I didn't have a good surface connection. Is there a preferred glue to use?

Del, I've been cutting and smoothing my frets before I insert them because grinding them on the fret board scratches the paint and wood. I saw what you did but do you have to go back and fix the paint? Great vid though.

I like so much yours videos and Cbg Can you send to Paris in France and at wath price?? Thanks for answer!

Ya wish you elaborated on cutting fret slots. great video that the lightning boy Crossroads song ?

Wonderful bright tone Great video 👍 Does putting hot glue over the top of the pickup change the tone at all?

lol i accidentally left the captions on from my last video and whenever you power on your tools it says [Music]

Do these use the lighter treble strings because of less tension? Do they, or could they, have low E A D strings on one guitar, and the lighter G B E on another? Im thinking one guy could play rhythm and the other leads. All I know is these things are cool as hell and Im buying one!

So what can a person expect to pay for boxes say at Pauls?

Just a thought here about the sound holes. Would grommets over the O's in Romeo be a good idea ?

nice
