    Box arrived damaged, the cardboard box which makes the body of the guitar was slightly dented. Decided I would do the same fairly soon anyway, so didn't complain. Guitar is easy to put together, and fun to play. There are a few beginner lessons on YouTube if you don't have a CD player. With the tiny investment if you n want to tinker with the idea of a slide blue box guitar without a big commitment of money or time.

    One of the tuner pegs was loose, but I was able to replace it with another one I had extra. I could have fixed it if needed, but my solution was easier. You may need to tinker a bit with it, but for the price it's hard to beat. The included book and CD help with learning and are worth at least half the price alone. It's fun to play and a good way to see if you might be interested in talking the hobby further. I'll probably also use the dimensions from this one to build my own later.

    It’s a really fun little guitar. I like how it looks and feels to play, it’s easy to set up and pretty good quality, arrived fast in new condition and was only 28 dollars

    Nice rumbling NAM controller

    Has a very nice natural rumble to it, somewhere between reverb and distortion, but slight. Tune it low enough and pass it through Neural Amp Modeler with a VST to lower pitch, and you should have a good bass part. Play high notes on the lower neck and get some really good ringers. If you are going to play it without the slide and the string height (3-4 mm) is too high for you, I suggest replacing the nut and possibly the bridge with smaller diameter hardware from the hardware store Pair it with a ukulele and you've nearly got all of the bases covered. Universal NAM is a lifesaver.

  • Top critical review

    Cheap junk, sound terrible, made of card board.

    Not a real cigar box at all, but a paper covered thin card board box. Very cheaply made and the sound proves this. The slide is too small to work properly. The neck is terrible. Not smooth to operate. Highly disappointed in this product.

  • A real bargain!

    At this price, it's a no brainer for anyone that wants to play bluesy slide guitar music. Awesome tone for such a simple instrument and VERY easy to play. My only complaint would be the piezo electric pick up, as a rule they can be very microphonic and are feedback monsters. This is true of all piezo devices so is to be expected. All in all very happy with it. I couldn't put it down for the first 4 hours I had it!

  • Can’t go wrong for $30

    Bought this on a whim, and wasn’t expecting much considering the price, but I was pleasantly surprised. This thing really sounds pretty good. I tried making a cigar box guitar once and probably spent about as much as this cost on parts, and it sounded terrible. Now I’ve got to try out some different tunings, because playing the blues in the same key gets depressing after a while.

  • Lightweight with great book & CD, you can't go wrong with this

    This is a great way to learn slide guitar. It is small & easy to learn. The book is full of great info. The CD is great, with back tracks, A tuning track so you do not need to buy a tuner, as long as you have something to play the CD in. It would be a good idea to buy a cheep tuner. As far as the price you just can't beat it. You can buy one for any wear from under $20.00 to $59.95. you just have to look around for a good price. Even at $30.00 to $ 40.00 is well worth it. The sound of the guitar very good and a small amp helps the sound but is not a must. Also you can take this any ware. In all this is a great product and was well thought out. Plus it is just fun to play!!
