This is a letter that I received from Joe Bonamassa's foundation for rallying the next generation and passing on the blues to our youth.
This was in receipt of a CBG. I will be doing additional work with these folks and of course Joe.

real easy to get them on the boxes. Download the photo,
use spray adhesive on the box and attach....and finally cover it with a thin piece if plexi glass. Real simple and the results are very satisfying.

Meeting with Tom McKnight this evening at the Flying Dog in Sarasota to continue filming the video that we have been working on....Both Steve Arvey and George Worthmore have been filmed playing Cottin Pickin Blues cigar box guitars. This will hopefully turn into an incredibly comprehensive study of the origin and playing of the Cigar Box Guitar. We will post it as soon as its completed.

The Cigar City Brewery event in Tampa was fantastic success!! Over 1,000 people in attendance. Police advised that the show can't be at the Brewery next year as the crowds were jamming up the traffic. We'll have to move it to a new location next year.
I sold 10 CBG's .....Great day !!!!! Gave out at least 200 business cards.
The Cottin Pickin Blues Brothers Steve Arvey, Ed Wright, Aaron Fowler put on a great performance using our builds.…
