Comment by Hellhound Custom Built Guitars on March 24, 2011 at 10:35am: love the look of that guitar

Comment by MichaelS Country Boy Guitars on March 23, 2011 at 11:36am: Just added pics on my page of this.

Comment by MichaelS Country Boy Guitars on March 23, 2011 at 6:56am: No sun and its snowing!! I just finished 3 builds. A really nise Gisbert box, about the same size as a macanudo portofino, but varnished wood. It sounds really nice accoustically. And a Macanudo portofino cafe, also nice sound but the gisbert is better. And an odd ball, a very thin and small Questa Rey box that I added wings to to give it a guitar look, amped only, sounds like an unplugged electric without the amp.

Comment by Hellhound Custom Built Guitars on March 23, 2011 at 4:25am: any new builds on the table for anyone? I should be finalizing 2 today and starting a new fish themed build.

Comment by Hellhound Custom Built Guitars on March 20, 2011 at 3:01am: The sun is shining the snow is melting ( I think I see grass) no work. Its going to be a good day. build and play

Comment by Hellhound Custom Built Guitars on March 19, 2011 at 3:48pm: would love to see it happen

Comment by MichaelS Country Boy Guitars on March 19, 2011 at 10:32am: Cool, It would be kind of fun to meet up in a central location with other cbgers. Central Mass seems as good a place as any, not far from most of New England. There must be more than 3 of us up hopefully they will join in.

Comment by Hellhound Custom Built Guitars on March 19, 2011 at 6:30am: I'm officially a New Yorker but a New England transplant. Welcome

Comment by MichaelS Country Boy Guitars on March 19, 2011 at 6:22am: I'm just over the border in upstate NY, about half an hour from Pittsfield, MA. I know its not officially new england but am I close enough? I've been thinking of starting a group for us northerners, thanks for beating me to it Eric.
