Great!! Hopefully you'll include some photos after you're done.  Built a nice little Diddly-bow for my son this past Christmas and did a dual build with a buddy of mine who'd never built one before IMG953410.jpg(see attached photo of his CBG - I'm the guy in the back).  Got another on the workbench waiting for bridge, pickup and strings.

Yes, started on one for my brother. Should be fun. I've got a few more tools to help build, and made a jig for doing my scarf joints a little better.  No CAD on this one, just going for it!  how about you?

Comment by A.C.E on August 19, 2017 at 6:58pm

Yup, still here...  Sorry to hear about the PA deal.  Any new builds lately?

Comment by John Matrishon on August 19, 2017 at 7:53am

crickets have vanished and disappeared....was all setup to go to the PA fest, but have to postpone until next year.....

Anyone out there?

Comment by John Matrishon on April 23, 2017 at 3:14pm

Well, it's spring folks....anyone out there?

Comment by John Matrishon on February 16, 2017 at 3:55pm

more crickets?  Spring is right around the corner!!!

Hey all,

I am starting to do some research on places I can sell my instruments. Anyone have any ideas? I've looked at a few larger things and was too late for this year's NEFFA.

Thanks!

Jeff

Also, would still love to get together at some point :)

All we can do is try, right!

Comment by A.C.E on December 29, 2016 at 9:05pm

Sounds like a good idea.  Most of you guys are in MA or Southern NH, so would probably make sense to do something down your way.  I'm way up in Northern NH, but would make the trip if it would work out with days off and such.

Been chatting with Jeff W here and was wondering if anyone wants to plan a bit ahead for a spring time GTG? Ideas, locations, etc?
