Introducing the Mountain Tenor Acoustic DIY 3-String Box Guitar Kit, a delightful and engaging way to immerse yourself in the world of music creation. Designed specifically for both novice and experienced players, this kit allows you to build your very own acoustic guitar right at home.

Crafted with the essence of good old down-home mountain music in mind, the Mountain Tenor Guitar Kit is perfect for entertaining around the campfire, during church gatherings, or at lively pickin’ and grinnin’ jam sessions. This guitar kit is not just an instrument; it is a gateway to enjoying and sharing music with friends and family.

With most components crafted right here at the C. B. Gitty workshops in Gonic, New Hampshire, this exceptional-sounding guitar kit is ready for assembly at your dining room table. All you need are basic tools such as clamps, a light drill, and screws to bring your guitar to life. There is no need for sawing or routing—just straightforward assembly that anyone can manage.

The Mountain Tenor Guitar pays homage to the rich musical heritage of the mountainous regions of the United States. From the Smoky and Appalachian Mountains to the Rockies and Adirondacks, the music that has echoed through these landscapes has inspired countless musicians. This guitar kit not only allows you to create an instrument but also connects you with the spirit and culture of these areas.

Tenor guitars have historically been overshadowed by their six-string counterparts. However, their popularity is on the rise due to their unique features and versatility. With a shorter scale length of 23 inches and fewer strings, tenor guitars provide an excellent opportunity for beginners to start playing while also offering seasoned players a chance to diversify their musical repertoire.

Included with the Mountain Tenor Guitar Kit is a set of strings tuned to the Open G standard, which has become widely recognized as the preferred tuning for 3-string cigar box guitars. For those looking to experiment further, you can also re-string your guitar with a set of High Open G Strings (not included) for a more traditional old-timey banjo-like sound.

As you embark on this fun and rewarding project, you will appreciate the included detailed how-to guide. This guide not only provides step-by-step assembly instructions but also includes essential tips on how to play your newly constructed guitar, ensuring that you are well-equipped to enjoy your musical journey.

In conclusion, the Mountain Tenor Acoustic DIY 3-String Box Guitar Kit offers a unique blend of creativity, tradition, and accessibility. Whether you’re strumming on a front porch or jamming with friends, this guitar kit is designed to bring joy and connection through music.
