Gotta agree with Redbelly, it would be great to get a lot more input into Cigar box Guitars Australia, Ning that is, I'm only new but I'm certainly going to get Involved, it's a Great Site, Cheer's.

My comments in the previous post were directed to the very active Australian members of the USA site. We would welcome contributions from all over. There are 2 web sites with the same name, make sure you go to the site with ning.com in its address. 

http://cigarboxguitarsaustralia.ning.com/. Please cut and paste this address

It would be great that after contributing to this site you copy and paste your article to Cigar Box Guitars Australia. We could do with more active contributors and it would stimulate our readers to contribute to our web site themselves. It’s the old rule applies “use it or lose it”

Could you please email the address details Dan and I'll see what I can do. Being an ex-Aussie Paratrooper myself I guess it's the least I can do.

Some of you already know we have a group of us that build and donate CBGs to deployed service members of all nations...well most of them anyway. We have an Aussie Explosive Ordnance Tech that would love to have an instrument, but would like it shipped to his address in AU. The shipping from the US is silly expensive. Are there any Australian builders who would consider building/donating one of the CBGs to the cause?

      Have fun Al, great way to start, don;t forget to show us the finish product.    

Comment by Rockabilly Al on October 9, 2012 at 10:00pm

Hi guys, Al here. Perth WA. I'm a late starter on the guitar ( 60 ) and recently discovered this fantastic CBG world.

I've just taken delivery of my kit, so the building fun begins.
