Very Appalachian-esq. Backwoods… in a good way. Loving it!

To me, the only important thing about a guitar is how it makes you feel when you make it, and then play it. That's where you find the beauty in it.

[@jackmorgan1052]

As someone who played a mandolin for many years you have made a three string cigar box tenor mandolin. It gave me chills in a good way

[@andyvondeluxe6851]

I have to say (for me anyway) skinny strings rule. They have that certain 'Terwwang' and l couldn't play any lead work without them. I always used skinnies on a six string and l get the most enjoyment playing with them, but l digress! Will have a go with that alternative tuning and see how l get on. I know I've said it before but thanks for your enthusiasm, championing these little instruments. They are awesome!!

[@jeffelliott1533]

Sounds like mountain dalcimer

[@mitchellwoodham28]

Excellent as always!!! Wikipedia has the opposite of growl is whisper. How 'bout that... 🤣

[@randyn1137]

To me the guitar has a dulcimer sound with that tuning. Sounds good!

[@yonathannoy6996]

Beautiful build and playing!

[@ranman58635]

I've got it. Skills, that's a different story. I don't always remember the tips. Broke my neck yesterday after I realized why we do a heel. Must go through the neck to keep from being too thin.

[@justincheney2925]

Amazingly great , 😍🙏👍

[@johnbruno1936]

Its definitely the feel and sound

[@Propergame]

🤘

[@peterdstover]

Kind of a dulcimer effect.

[@davidspencer2333]

Del - nice build. Yours sounds like one of those Brazilian Cavaquinho guitars! Sweet! I just tuned up my latest 4 string DGBD, and it has a similar sound.

[@PuckettCigarBoxGuitar]

awesome!! i bet it sounds amazing!!

[@garylandau7159]

Cool sounds great

[@itsclearasmud7718]

This is probably a dumb question. Have you ever played / built a Strum Stick. I bought one 20 years ago and they arexa real scrub machine; So much going on with the right hand.

[@stevesstrings5243]

I kind of like rough hewn approach! Thanks for the suggestion and inspiration!

[@PuckettCigarBoxGuitar]

You're so welcome!

[@MrGREYMATTERS]

As a balalaika player, I use e-e-A tuning.

[@icebob8555]

Kinda like Ballika tuning

[@waltdavis29]

Always nice to see a “switch up”. This reminds me of back in 1970, my dad and I built some ukuleles from some plans he found. He was an engineer and a mathematician. We started experimenting with moving strings and tunings around. We came up with really cool and different sounds. It also reminds me of that “6” stringer you built quite a while back. Always fun stuff. See ya soon buddy
