Camacho 2 - Cigar Box Guitar
Welcome!
In this video you can see me build the Camacho 2 - Cigar Box Guitar
Its a Comission for "Die Bullenschmiede" and a part of the payment was a handmade kitchen knife with one of the most expensive woods as the handle.
Camacho Corojo Box
Flamed/Roasted Maple neck
Ebony Fretboard
18 Frets
51,5cm Scalelength
Pearl and Abalone Dots + Sidedots
Scalloped Bone nut
EMG H4A Humbucker
1 Volume
1Tone
Tuning AEA (string gauges 36,26&17)
I made a few changes from the last Camacho cigar box guitar build and tried to improve the build!
Feel free to leave comments and ask questions ;-)
Luis,

    Looks beautiful, though I'm curious if the vegetation you're using is fake or real (sorry if I missed you saying which). I've seen many videos showing how resin doesn't seal biological materials from rotting. I'd be concerned how it will look in a few years. Still, at the moment, it looks spectacular. Beautiful work.
