What Does GpaD stand for? Grandpa Dwayne Shepard "GpaD" as he is lovingly called by his grandchildren, fell in love with Cigar Box Guitars thru his desire to combine his woodworking abilities with his love for music. Each guitar he creates is unique. Although he may re-create one with a similar motif you can be assured there will be no two alike. Both Acoustic and Electric, GpaD guitars allow you to create a multitude of sounds and can be played as lead, chords, or as a slide guitar. His boxes are decorated by wood burning, photos, or even memorabilia to depict (showcase) his designs. If you have a favorite, check with us about creating a custom Cigar box Guitar just for you.
