My wife bought me a ‘build your own’ cigar box guitar years ago. I constructed it but didn’t ever really play. Your videos have totally changed my spare time. Loving it. Keep up the good work

Hi Michael, I see this video is from about 3 years ago, and I'm watching it on June 10,2023. I wanted to thank you for the lesson, as I am picking up my first CBG tomorrow from the gentleman that made it for me this past week, and I really like this style of music. I also like the tuning you have in this video, I think it gives it more of that swampy sound you are going for.

I did have a question about the guitar. Is it one you built? I have a three string CBG with piezo pickup and it picks up my clumsiness in that every time my hand clank of slide across it, the sound is emphasized. Now, as I approach age 78 I am fighting against arthritis in my hands so got this guitar (never played in my life) to try to learn and in so doing keep my fingers and thumbs more flexible. So far so good, as the two trigger fingers which were "starting" at least are not bothering me now. But some of the melodies I am trying to learn would be far easier to play ( my hands don't stretch well and I have a lifetime of hard use on them now) on four strings instead of three strings. Also, I think a humbucker or flat wound pickup (I honestly don't know the difference among the choices yet) might be the answer. I am not afraid to tackle building something. The street rod I use for my avatar I pretty much scratch built including my own chassis for raw materials, so I am not thrown off by the idea of a CBG (that is not to say I could build a good one...!). If I decide to build, is there any advice you might offer about choice of pickup, choice of 3 or 4 string, choice of strings (does anyone use flat wound on a CBG or is that just on bass?) and guidance on building the fretboard (or just buy it from Gitty?). Thanks. A little guidance would be appreciate, but maybe this is not the forum for that? If not, let me know. Thanks!

Do you build these guitars for sale? I sure would like to pick up one seems like all you can find are these three strings made like a toy with those $10 pick up and neck out of furring strip. I've been playing since the early 60s and now I have arthritis in the hands so bad it's really hard to do it 3 string would be the way to go

Thank you Chris, If you have a pickup, and your playing mostly with an amp, sound holes may be more decorative. Go a head, annoy those neighbors. :) Stay safe M~

@@SouthernFireGuitars Sure is but a guy from your side of the pond was showing the flag for you this weekend. It was the Isle of Wight Festival this weekend and because of Covid it was mainly British acts this year but Seasick Steve made it. Don’t know if he’s well known over there but he’s a real favourite in U.K. and Europe with his 3 string guitars and Crazy Dan, his drummer. Worth looking at on KZbin.
