Hello from sunny Sourh Wales UK
Hi I'm Wes from Port Talbot, South Wales near Swansea.
Been playing guitar for over 25 plus, but only now discovered the amazing sound of the CBG
The past few month I've been playing on a old strat with just the 3 strings in open G.
I will be looking to build my own, but for now I'm going to cheat and have one made for me by Shane Wagstaff from Rock Hill Cigar Box Guitars and can't wait.
Also love live music and festivals

Welcome, Wes! I know what you mean--CBG playing and building is like a bug we catch, and can't seem to shake!
