- How did you learn about Cigar Box Nation?
- already on
I'm a pro musician (keys and sax - I'm the worst guitarist ever) and I've toured a lot in Australia and overseas with major label acts. Spent 6 years on the tour bus through the USA with Little River Band. Have done some jingle and soundtrack stuff. Building CBGs is a passion now and I've sold a few, mostly to justify the expense of tools and stuff but also so I don't end up with 20 guitars in my living room.
This site and the community here has been very helpful and I've met some great peeps so twang you all very much.

I made a few beginners videos and posted them on my page here, one of them is how to fret, or at least the way I do it anyway.

It's just a big box with strings on it!
Everything else is the basic stuff like a regualr guitar.
I have a stencil for most of my artwork so I can redo it on other guitars. I usually make the stencil and then hand paint over that.
