Show off your love of homemade music and instruments loud and proud with this beautiful hand-made cigar box guitar!

A special edition guitar in tribute to The Who and the process of the still has inspired entertainment for years. Countless songs have sung of its sweet virtues and medicinal properties. Well, here we take just such an image and print it in full-color, high-resolution right onto the box top. The result is an amazing-looking guitar that is perfect for building a very special cigar box guitar or other craft purposes! This guitar features vintage artwork based on an actual concert poster from back in the heyday of Rock & Roll.

The "Vivigraphic" printing method produces high resolution, photo-quality images. The printing process is somewhat time intensive, so we have to charge a little extra for these specially handcrafted guitars.

This beautiful piece is one of our line of "illustrated" guitars, designed to capture the essence of fundamental, no-frills stringed instrument crafting. To the sturdy frame (tone-rich wooden cigar box, hardwood neck & fretboard, solid tried-and-true hardware), we add beautiful, full-color artwork, uniquely vivifying the instrument and drawing the eye of all who see it. This handcrafted guitar has a full, rich acoustic tone (and a built-in contact pickup, if you want to amplify it), a nice high ringing treble voice, and is simply a joy to play. Best of all is the affordable price on this hand-crafted-in-the-USA piece of musical art.
