#1 resource for Cigar Box Guitars, Free Plans, How-To, Parts & More!

Randy Rooster goes global!

Well, kinda....

I hope you will excuse the shameless self publicity, but Iv just about got my website up and running if anyones interested in having a look. Its my first go at web design so Im sure there are improvements to be made, but Im having to keep it simple!

Its at www.randyroosterscigarboxguitars.com

Any feedback (good or bad) would be great, and if you are inspired to leave a comment on the guestbook, check you have your pop-up blocker turned off first!

I really must say thankyou to Mark C for turning me on to the site package - without it I may never have bothered, so cheers mate :o)

Id also like to say thankyou to the guys who allowed me to post their videos and pictures on there - Shane, Mike Snowden, Bluesbeaten Redshaw, Hollowbelly, Juju and Chickenbone John - thanks chaps!

Lastly, if any of you guys have a website or a product that you would like promoting, do get in touch - its good to link :o)

Thanks
Roosterman

Hi Stuart,

He hasn't posted for a while. I still have him as a CBN friend so I am able to send him an email. I have done so and sent him a link to this thread.

Regards,

David L
