".....the finest cigar box guitars that we've seen.
J. Stoltz is a well respected folk artist and his cigar box designs are a natural extension of his phenomenal talent."

-Illinois Art Studio

My "Southern Classic" cigar box guitars resulted from a trip I made to the heart of the Delta Blues country - New Orleans.
I acquired an appreciation for the Deep South blend of Jazz and Blues amongst the Cajun and French cultures all along the bayous and swamplands of Louisiana.

Throughout the French Quarter of New Orleans to the coast of Biloxi, Mississippi, the trials, tribulations, and community bonds are woven deeply into the resonating sound of their music.

From stories of the Depression, to long lost loves, mystery, and all the emotions that ebb and flow from a lifetime of Southern living, I'd found a style of music that fed into my passion for art and music.

At the end of this long and winding road, I founded my first "Southern Classic" cigar box guitars and named them aptly, "Delta Blues Classics."
