Mike, that extended series on the build of a single guitar is awesome -- I'd even say better than video as a learning tool.

Hello,
I have started a CBN group entitled, "How to Play CBG" It is my hope and intention to encourage the "Wealth of Talent" here on the Nation to share their knowledge and skill to further the CBG movement. Please consider contributing an instructional "video" link to this group. If you are a viewer seeking instruction, please feel free to write. If you have any suggestions or know other players who you think may want to post instructional "video" links, please contact me. Thank you for your interest and support, Keni Lee

Hi Mike,
I sanded down a box that did'nt have a nice front and made the stencil myself. I also thinned the lid to about an 1/8" . It is by far my favorite.

Very cool, Mike. Is that a home made resonator?
