Washboard Guitar

"I did one and I think I did the back like you did. Some folks do the neck out of the top and some do the neck out of the bottom. I kind of wish I still had mine. It's a wall hanger, but the gal who has it appreciates it."

I love how they sound and I am amazed that I can put together something from a piece of wood and a cigar box and have it sound so cool.

Hey, Mikey.  I like your Monte and red white and green builds.  You LOOK like an old rocker.  How is your playing going?   Knotlenny's CBG 101 lesson (google it or find it in the how to play section) helped me a lot.
