Comment by Uncle John on May 24, 2015 at 12:21pm: Not really. Go to page top, the how to play section. Lots of good help there. I most recommend knotlenny's CBG 101. He got me rolling.

Comment by David Bowes on May 24, 2015 at 12:08pm: Always easywhen you know how, I need a teacher with a lot of patience.

Comment by Uncle John on May 24, 2015 at 12:02pm: Well, get busy and learn some CBG. Not too hard.

Comment by David Bowes on May 24, 2015 at 11:55am: Thanks anonymous pick.

Comment by David Bowes on May 24, 2015 at 11:52am: Uncle John. No can not play it, I am embarrassed to say that I can not pay the guitar or the Zither, it belongs to the music shop. Top left is my favorite also, but good boxes like that are difficult to find in the UK.

Comment by the anonymous pick on May 24, 2015 at 3:10am: nice

Comment by Uncle John on May 24, 2015 at 2:17am: Yah, sir. I could spend some time with you in that room. Zither? The top left grabs my eye the most. Can you play the zither?
