ah right, sorry I was tired and having a quick look and must've missed them!

I thought the ladies were well represented in the audience in the evening and at the daytime workshop when I had a nosey.
A little unfair to say there wasn't any there when they even feature in the blog photos and also on stage.

Not a woman in sight?  Look at the photos...I always get the ladies to my workshops!

My other half was there, and a few other ladies! As for why more women arent into it? It might be a generalisation but i suspect most are too busy on facebook or listening to shart fm!

hmmm, don't know Micky. I've often wondered why there are so few women into it. The only conclusion I've come to is that I must be a bit odd, lol?!

What do you think would encourage more women to become interested in building and playing CBG's,Bea?....

Comment by bemuzic on March 9, 2017 at 8:17am

Hey all, long time no see. I always keep up with this thread but rarely comment. Are there many of you that make CB Ukeleles out there?

I'd like to make a few tenor/baritone CB and lunchbox versions.
