This is no slap-a-premade-neck-on-a-box-and-call-it-done cigar box building class. In this two or three day class you will build a funky and colorful cigar box ukulele from the ground up. Students will carve a neck, fret a fingerboard, brace a top and set-up a uke that is unique to their chosen cigar box.
This is planned as a two day class, but an extra day will be provided in the event that it is needed.
You may provide your own cigar box. For $25 you may choose a vintage box from my collection. Our local cigar store has a huge selection of modern boxes for $1-2 each. I recommend boxes about 8-9”l x 5-7”w x 2-3”d. Sizes of boxes are irregular. If you are not sure that your box will work, send the dimensions and I’ll do the math.
