Thank you for visiting the home of Rose Instruments! Here you'll find photos of traditional guitars, banjos, basses, mandolins, ukuleles and more that we've built over the years, plus of course, the cigar box instruments we've become known for. However, you may discover something else, the desire to build your own cigar box instrument. The good news is they're nearly as much fun to build as they are to play, and these days there are some great online resources available to help you do just that. So, take a look around. If you like what you see leave me a note. And who knows, one of these days I may be checking out your website!

Just taking a moment to share my appreciation. I was gifted a Rose 4-string cigar box slide guitar with resonator and vents and pickup, along with glass bottle neck slide by my brother a few years ago, and it continues to be a favorite. It looks and sounds beautiful. The slide is it's own artistic statement. Thank you.
