One of my earliest builds. Never liked it much. Was just collecting dust. Added a dulci fretboard (poplar) and turned into a player. My first strummer. So much fun. Gitty clip on pickup through a micro cube.

Thanks Ron. Very kind of you. I'll try with a better view of the board next time around.

Can't get over how good you make it sound. I sent this on to a few friends. Can you do a video showing the fretboard a little better while your playing?

Thank you Jason. It's so much fun playing this git. Had no idea what I've been missing.

Thanks Nancy. Tough for me to record during the week. Need to break the cube 40 out I reckon. Might try doing something tomorrow. Thanks again.

Very sweet sounding, not at all what you'd expect to hear from a CBG; but that's the great thing about them, you can do so much, so much, and it's so new to most people, which is the great fun of it!

Thanks Rusty. My wife wants me to build one for her now too.

Anyway, went with D'Addario XL Nickel wounds. Regular light Gage. First time that I've used them. Used the 26th, 17th and 13th or the 2, 3 and 4 strings.

Have no idea what key I'm in but it's tuned route-5th-octave.
