Although the picture shows two styles of headstock used for these instruments, Matty has informed me that he is just offering one HS shape. Both a shallow and a deep box model body shape are available. I love the fact that the brand of tonality you get really depends on what brand of cigar you like. |
Royce kindly demonstrated the Cuban deep box model. Surprisingly, it had enough volume to fill the room. The film clip on the right was recorded straight on my Sony Mavica using the built in mic. |

Joi Yui of LA Guitar Works checks out the cigar box resophonic guitar. Matty calls it a "Resofiddle".. |
Gary takes a moment to enjoy the Resofiddle. |
Next Matty reveals his Les Paul Deluxe reproduction. It is a beautifully done Black and Gold LP. He told us that since he can not afford all the instruments he would like to own, he plans to make copies of all of them for himself. That sounds great as long as he makes 2 of each. I'm a guitar addict too. |
Matty takes a bow... After all the work and all the toil, it is nice to have your craftsmanship be appreciated by your peers. |
