Is it possible, I have now seen it all?

Good Grief!

Nope, you haven't. Not until you see the cigar box basses of the early 1930s.

In fireglo no doubt?

Jim?

Thought it was PanatelaGlow

I suppose with a hot-enough lit match, and a choice cigar, the whole box would definitely become FireGlo

That's what I was a thinkin anyways

Speaking of which, I will have some nice Padron 1926 Anniversary cigars to share in Aug! The move to Dallas is a ways off, for now.

I did just have one of those 40th anniversary Dominican Cohibas. WOW! And mild too.

Let's see, the boxes are made of cardboard, and that word is in the title, so we must be on topic!

When I was in Manila I saw several stand up basses made from jerry cans.Sounded reasonably loud.

After having watched the video, I now have a use for the carton my 4003 arrived in.
