Adam Bennett left a comment for Josh Gayou (SmokehouseGuitars)"I appreciate the notice, Josh. Ecspecially from a talented craftsman like yourself. I slotted the through neck and then slid the box up on to it. Even though this box is kid of dull to the casual observer it is actually has the best sound out of any…"

Hey ya'll !!
My name is Adam but folks round here call me Pirate. I just recently got into CBGs but have been into woodworking for many years. I'm hooked and I spend so much time in the garage that my old lady was getting fed up. So... I built her one too. I've built several so far and can't seem to stop. I sold a few on ebay, gave a few away and keep a couple on hand to play. I've seen so many cool guitars on this site that my head is bursting with ideas. Too bad I have a real job that takes away from my guitar building time. Hit me up some time I would love to chat and share ideas.

- Special Greetings from the Greenville SC area!
Welcome aboard, Adam! You will find lots of helpful folks and information here on all things CBG (CBU, CBB, etc.) Feel free to poke around, ask questions, and post your stuff (photos, recordings, videos, etc.).
Up in the Free Resources menu at the top, you will see a number of plans for building and playing cigar box guitars/ukuleles/banjos/dulcimers/violins. I encourage you to download any of the plans, take a look at them, and ask questions from there. Also our site is VERY searchable. I bet you your questions have already been asked, so take a few moments and look around.
Join our Chat sometime (see the bar at the bottom of your browser page). Keep in mind that tho the chat window says there are X number of people online, not all may have the chat window up.
Most of all, have fun!
