Looking for a CBG - Matched !!

Hello to all. I am looking for a CBG for a great friend of mine who is being promoted to LTC. He has been deployed 5 times and is not only a friend, but a great dad and officer. He is an avid guitar and banjo player and I know he would love a CBG. I would like to give him this for his promotion. If there is anyone that would be willing to assist me with getting him an instrument, I would greatly appreciate it.

Thanks, MSG Jerry McCarley

Jerry,

I want to apologize for the 'Caleb'. I copy/paste better than I type and missed that edit. We're in the home stretch on our current one and can start yours now. Look for a Friend Request and we'll continue via CBN mail.

Thanks,

HunzNSam
