Cigar Box Guitar Lessons

Just to let you know that I am starting CBG tuition covering Auckland North and down to Hamilton.

I do an intensive 2 hour session covering tuning, slide technique, basic and advanced riffs and general 'How To's' on 3 and 4 string cigar box guitars.

The cost is $150 all up for the course and that is for either one on one or a group session. If you are interested then yo can contact me at fattmaxmusic@gmail.com

Keep on plucking folks
