Has anyone got a 3-string cigar box guitar I could beg, borrow or otherwise acquire? I have Parkinson’s Disease and I no longer have the strength or dexterity in my fingers so all my instruments have been sold or given away as I am now in a care home in Hindhead, Surrey. A friend suggested I ought to try a cigar box guitar. I’ve looked at Chicken Bone John’s website and some others and would like to try one. I don’t have the facilities to make one and I was wondering if any forum members can help me?

Hey man, if I had one then you could definitely have it. I remember you sold me a Washburn guitar for an unbelievable price and were generally awesome to hang out and chat guitars with, so I owe you a good turn. I'm sorry I can't help but I hope you manage to acquire one. I'll keep my eyes and ears out for you in the meantime :-)
Best regards, Lew

If you don’t fine one that suits you, ( neck too long, fingerboard not wide enough)
I would be happy to make one to your specific size for free.
Pete
I might squeeze in a 6” cone as well
