Cigar box `Ukulele

This excellent sounding and fun instrument stars 
as a solid cedar cigar box from the 1950's or earlier. 
The box is basically disassembled and the put back 
together like an `Ukulele. Since the whole box is made 
from an excellent tonewood, well quartered, 
the sound is comparable to any other fine 
Concert `Ukulele.
