Thanks for the tips Bug, I'll go look at that vid.

I've got an old antique parafin greenhouse heater that's looking like a strong candicate for a resonator !

Either that or Uke :0)

Nice one Bug,

The ol CB Geetars sound excellent !!

I guess you must make all these yourself?

I've got a nice old wine box that's beggin for a CBG job on it. Haven't made a resonator before, what's the main principle behind it? can you give me any tips n tricks please?

Cheers Mate

Gary

Really cool to see you performing Bug.  You sound good and look comfortable.  I did my first open mic earlier this year and it was a rush.  One heck of a GBG BBQ you guys had going there.
