lookin to jam on a cbg!! - Matched!

i was introduced to this site by SSgt May whom i met out here in Africa. was jammin with him and his roomate... and he pulled out a cigarbox, definatley one of the most bitchin' little things iv ever seen, never played one before that, but now im so stoked on it and want to pursue it further.. his cigar box is set up like a dulcimer, so it makes it a little more dificult to get that blues sound that im lookin for, if you guys could set me up with possibly getting my own, now matter know how simple, i cant even tell you how much i would appreciate it. the more instruments we have out here the more we can keep the music alive... when i was in afghanistan i carried a guitar with me on every convoy, and every FOB i went to then passed it on the next guy when i left to go home, id like to maybe do something like that here, thanks man! peace

Let me just point out that Eric ROCKS on my CBG - I can't imagine what he'll be able to do on a chromatic fretboard.
