Greetings from Papa Nektarius
I am just starting to learn to play, and hope to be decent at guitar. I want my first electric after I learn on my acoustic, to be Cigar Box Guitar.
My first build after I get learned will hopefully will be with a White Owl... If I can find it. I hope it is not lost in my sojourn, it was my grandfather's which he used to store watch parts in.
I would just like to say that I recently succesfully quit smoking. I did this using vapor from e-cigarettes. I get the satisfaction of smoking without the cancer causing elements in cigarette smoke. If you would like to try it out feel free to check out Bull Smoke. -- Just click on my banner

Growing up there have been a lot of artists that smoked in the media and this influenced me. From Slash to Trace Adkins and Robert Johnson there have been many to smoke in more than just talent. It is known now days that this habit can and does cause health issues from that nasty morning cough to cancer. Now the times should change and with the E-Cigarette we can continue without all he trouble that follows.
I would just like to say that I recently succesfully quit…
