Mississippi is famous for its hickory smoked barbecue, rural roadhouses and juke joints where wandering itinerant bluesmen developed a unique style of American music. Share in this southern blues tradition with your own Mississippi style Delta blues cigar box guitar.

All models can be played acoustically or electrically and feature a built in pick-up. You'll think you're at the Crossroads trading licks with the Devil when you play a cigar box guitar. But no need to trade your soul - these playable artworks are as inexpensive as they are unique. All come with a copper slide and pick included.

Cigar box guitars have a long tradition, dating to before the Civil War. Often they were the only guitars available to young bluesmen like Robert Johnson and Muddy Waters, and were largely responsible for the unique sound of the Mississippi Delta blues.

Whether you're a blues fan wanting to add a new look and sound to your music room, or an avid player wanting to sound like your blues idols, my Mississippi Mud Box cigar box guitars are the smart choice for price, sound and authenticy.
