This is my CBG. There are many like it, but this one is mine.
My CBG is my best friend. It is my life. I must master it as I must master my life. My CBG, without me, is useless. Without my CBG, I am useless. I must build my CBG true. I must build straighter than my last that is trying to warp. I must post pics before it is sold or gifted. I will...My CBG and I know that what counts in music is not the strings we tune, the noise of our amps, nor the sawdust we make. We know that it is the creativity that counts. We will create...
My CBG is human, even as I, because it is my life. Thus, I will learn it as a brother. I will learn its weaknesses, its strength, its parts, its accessories, its neck and its body. I will keep my CBG clean and ready, even as I am clean and ready. We will become part of each other. We will...
Before God, I swear this creed. My CBG and I are the defenders of my craft. We are the masters of our imagination. We are the saviors of my life.
So be it, until victory is ours and there is no rule, but peace!

This my creed or "truth" as I have found it to be...........

"There is always another, better box and it's calling to me as did the Siren to Ulysses.

I am powerless to her song."
