Now making my own hand wound pickups for "Superior Tone"

 

Pick Your Amp Box Below

Small and Medium Amps Are $69.99

Large Amps Are $99.99

All amps are 7 watts and run off a 9 volt battery. They are plenty loud enough for livingroom jamming. Depending on the components I have available, some have external speaker outputs so you can plug them into the PA or a larger amp and can run off AC power. I use this setup live and can get a GREAT tone thru my 100 Watt Music Man amp. Please specify if this is the type of amp you would like.

 


 

1930's Trutone D1035 Tube Radio Amp

This is an original Vintage radio in non working condition. It sitll has the original frequency dial! The speaker is 5 inches and the amp will be 7 watts. The model is Truetone D1035. What a cool vintage addition to your cigar box guitar this is! You can buy a service manual on this page and actually repair the radio. I don't know anything about radio repairs so please don't ask ;) This is a similar radio in perfect condition.

$249.99

Click Here To See My Electric Boogie Board Foot Drum

Playing my Boogie Board with my Cigar Box Guitar in my pajamas.

Please note, your Boogie Board doesn't have a band logo on it, but ask me and maybe I can add one for a bit extra.

Pickup inside, just plug a regular guitar cord into it!

Plug it into your bass or guitar amp and just stomp on it!

Just like the old days but ELECTRIFIED!

Great for acoustic or electric acts, even full bands!

Great for busking, one man bands

No batteries required

Get a great bass drum or snare like sound depending on where you stomp!

Angled for sittng or standing.

Painted jet black and covered with several coats of polyurethane.

Excellent for recording:

I use it to record guitar and drums at the same time - live, no need for a drum machine or samples. This also allows youto vary the tempo and record live, then add more tracks later without having to re-record the drums wich is EXTREMELY difficult to do after one percussion track is recorded.

I often record several guitar/boogie board tracks in one night, then go back and add bass, vocals, lead, etc... later.
