Ledzendrix1128 Posted January 12, 2006 Report Share Posted January 12, 2006 ok heres the story, about a year ago i tried to repair an old mandolin with no success, i forgot about it until i was looking through my attick and i saw the pile of hardware. The pile include a functional set of 8 tuners, a floating bridge, and a chrome tailpiece. So tomorow i plan on stopping by the local cigar shop to see if they have any extra boxes lying around. Any suggestions as to which brand box? I'm thinkin, kahlua, davidoff, or maybe macanudo. This is supposed to be a fun project that im really looking forward to doing, and hopefully ill get a nice mandolin out of it. So wish me luck!

Ledzendrix1128 Posted January 12, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 12, 2006 Yeah they are the rage, i think it was on setch's website i saw a cigar box mandolin too. Bottom line, theyre cheap and fun to build, especially since i have all the parts, so why not you know? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
