Workshop Chronicles: "The Lucent Rose" Cigar Box Guitar Build | White Cat Guitars

Every White Cat Guitars build has a story, and The Lucent Rose carries its past in every detail. Built around a Cohiba "Red Dot" cigar box, its fretboard is bound in repurposed cedar spills—the delicate wood strips traditionally used to light fine cigars. Equal parts vintage soul and custom craftsmanship, there's also some stealthy luminescent accents that catch the light long after the house lights drop.
