"Sorry for posting two videos so close together but they are really just one split to make it easy for anyone interested. This is the backing track I put together for Careless John to strum along to - a kind of CBG Jam with the Band if you like.…"

Are you thinking of something like the attached picture.  I took a Fender Telecaster and just made it a rectangle shape of approximately 8 3/4" x 15 7/8".   I can make it however you like.  I can even make you a prototype using cheap pine and send it to you so you can check the fit of your components before cutting the real deal.

Confession of my Addiction!

Posted on July 20, 2012 at 8:31am 8 Comments

My Names is Leadfoot and I have an addiction!

 

They say the first part of recovery is to admit you've got a problem and I have to admit that I have an addiction! Last night  after coming off stage at the Icklesham Beer Festival I had a realisation just how serious my problem has become. I'm completley hooked on playing Cigar Box Guitar Rock Blues live! Playing on a big stage and through a professional PA with Sound and Light engineers was a real buzz and rush. I loved being up…

Ive added a video of Saturdays gig at The Priory - hope you enjoy! Now looking forward to Thursdays gig at The Grand Woolwich Theatre.

All the best,

I had a great gig last night at the Priory with people up dancing and stompin their way through the 2 x 45 min sets. I could feel the floor vibrating when the audience stomped - at one point it nearly toppled the pa speaker and stand over! Introduced a whole lot of new people to the Cigar Box genre and as usual Kevin Dore was awesome on bass.

Looking forward to the next gig - tonight at Burgoyne Heights for the Jubilee.
