Hi, Are there any members in the Sacramento area who want to get together and talk, look at others handy work and play?  I could set something up somewhere.  Let me know.

Hi, I work in Paramount Unified School District. I just started building and can't wait to have my students build these this fall. They are really excited about making their own guitar.

It's a 4 string reso, built by Ottie Noble @ Crossroads.  It's supposed to be here Thursday, feel like a kid at Christmas time.

Hey Brett! What kinda cbg didya get? We just had a big porch music fest here in Napa acouple of weeks ago. I was going to get something cbg-related together for it, but was knocked out by some epic food poisoning... story of my life, unfortunately.

Hey all, I'm new to CBGs, in fact waiting for mine on UPS, should be here this Thursday.  Anyway, I'm from Santa Maria CA, about 60 miles north of Santa Barbara.  Has anybody put together any meets, festivals etc.  for California?

Hey Jim I know exactly where ventura county is. Dan what part of So Cal are you from??
Comment by jim Kasmir on May 18, 2011 at 7:48pm
Hello all! I hail from Ventura county. Anybody here know where that is? I am on my third build and driving my wife crazy. "Why do you need so many guitars?" she asks. My answer: "Guitars are like books; you can never have too many!". But she thinks we have too many books as well!
