Thanks for listening … heheheee

[@dr.k_6016]

Great vid! I love the fretting idea (mine, so far, have been fully fretted or fully unfretted). I was asked to do a little workshop at the library. They want to build basic 1-string "canjos" and Diddley Bows. This fretting system would be ideal, I think? It seems like, with just 1 string and the pentatonic scale, it would be really easy to learn to plunk out some basic blues riffs. What do you think? Just cut them for 2,3,5,6,7, 10 and 12? Let the attendees install the frets and dress them? Neat guitar!

[@mug2y]

Del ,,,, you are one crazy guy ! But l love you videos, keep them coming, can't wait for your next blues vid with songs, imade a cbg a few years ago, but not played it much, I surprised myself on how good it turned out, maybe I'll try a blues cbg next , any idea where to find a blues scale for the neck, keep on strumming fella, Steve from Liverpool England.

[@donniewoodland8467]

Love the sound coming out of that nice little guitar..kill that battery !

[@rolandmarchand1708]

I love it Brother, Thank You. When you first try something you never had before it feels like a new toy or my wife Pat said put it above the mantle with your Vietnam K-Bar, your M1 A1, and your Colt 45. I said can I at least play one song like Del did. Only if you don’t screw it up. I did the. Do Re Mi Fa So La Te Do Not perfect but I’m a work in progress.

[@woodguy1962]

Sounds great Del!

[@ArcticBreaze]

Oh go Dell youd look good with a blue beard

[@thomasd9237]

Blue Beard the friendly CBG player 😀 Well I got the box I want to use & a bunch of hardware together but I can't source a 23" neck. getting frustrated. I like your new blues box. Very cool 👍👍

[@ioannisbelantakis4731]

That is a nice job and great music!!!

[@PuckettCigarBoxGuitar]

heheheee thank you 😀

[@-jank-willson]

Have you considered doing a series on cookie tin banjos? 5-string and 4-string tenor banjos?

[@robertmcpheron8489]

awesome looking guitar del Thank you for your lessons.

[@clintonwalker5842]

Awesome

[@waveegravee]

Really cooool neck: a very deep cyan thing. Kinda wished the body matched the neck. Then you'd have a "Blue Man" guitar, which you could present to the Blue Man Group if they ever hit New Mexico in the future. Always love to see the shop critters.

[@thecigarboxguitarbuilder1860]

Another beautiful guitar Del. How can something so blue stop you from feeling the blues? Great work.

[@jeromegrzelak8236]

The blue man group

[@lobos59]

Freaking awesome

[@PuckettCigarBoxGuitar]

thank you

[@johnwashburn3793]

The blues is a good thing. Beautiful build. Happy new year! I will have to have you make me one of the pentatonic plus guitars one day. Thanks.

[@PuckettCigarBoxGuitar]

or just remove some of the frets from your CBG 🥹

[@williamgroemminger6006]

Hey Del, you always make it look so easy. Like the blue for the blue's, great job as usual.

[@PuckettCigarBoxGuitar]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@hurdygurdyguy1]

Cool blue, dude!! The highlite for me is always your playing!! (I'm still working on Christmastime Is Here .. getting better...why? Practice, practice, practice 😉)

[@PuckettCigarBoxGuitar]

just in time for Christmas next year???

[@christinesorrells31]

Do you have a template for the fretboard spacing? I cant seem to get mine right. Im working on my first CBG!

[@PuckettCigarBoxGuitar]

cbgitty sells templates. 😎👍🏽 there’s an affiliate link and promo code located in my video descriptions.

[@christinesorrells31]

@@PuckettCigarBoxGuitar Thank you sir!

[@DavidALovingMPF102]

When is your next CD coming out? Del Puckett's Greatest Hits!

[@PuckettCigarBoxGuitar]

Love!!? How’s it going!!? i got some optics for you. 😎. DM me

[@chuckkelley5894]

Delified!

[@graysaw]

Is that the same as a diatonic scale

[@towpathguitars]

Nitrile gloves. I used to be like that, but now all finishes require gloves. 50 count for a few bucks at the old Harbor Freight.

[@kevinorr6880]

I am three days into this rabbit hole. Where do you suggest getting a torsion bar for a bit longer lasting CBG? I’ve heard that over time, without it, the necks become worthless.

[@PuckettCigarBoxGuitar]

good question?? not sure. 😎

[@dgperforms1]

Is that your Garage, Basement, or Room in your home? I just bought a very big home with all those options. I can finally build a workshop. I do prefer to use my basement....

[@PuckettCigarBoxGuitar]

it’s a rehab mobile home… completely gutted

[@graysaw]

Hey Del, Mr. Blue! Curious if you have a favorite scale LENGTH?

[@PuckettCigarBoxGuitar]

i’m really liking the 23 inch just for balance with the smaller boxes 😎

[@garylandau7159]

I Love It

[@bluesboy572]

where to you get those stain qtips?

[@PuckettCigarBoxGuitar]

stole them from work 😎

[@itsclearasmud7718]

I've found I get hum when I ground a build that only has a piezo. Don't know why? I opened the guitar up and removed the ground and lost the hum.

[@-jank-willson]

wasnt grounded correctly

[@PuckettCigarBoxGuitar]

i believe it
