Just wanted to let everyone know that I just finished putting together a small batch of DenTone Cigbooster pedal and they are available at my website (link below) and also on ebay shortly.

Ben, those fret boards look great and will help many builders finish there cbg's.

Well, it has certainly been a while since I posted in here, and as many of you probably know we have added MANY great new products to our lineup.

 

We are very excited about the most recent additions, though: pre-made necks and fretboards made specifically for CBGs in our own shop!

 


All of the necks we offer have a nice angled headstock (scarf jointed), with various options from basic/plain to fully fretted with headstock extensions! We offer the necks in 4 woods at present: hard maple, white oak, cherry and peruvian walnut.

 

For the fretboards, we offer both slotted and fully fretted, in four beautiful and hard-to-find woods: white oak, Peruvian walnut, purpleheart and zebrawood.

 

The work that has gone into these fretboards, and especially the necks represent some of the most difficult parts of CBG building: scarf jointing, headstock extensions and fretting. These are great options for really bumping your special CBG up to the next level, without all of the hard work and special tools that it takes to do the job well. Now you can let C. B. Gitty take care of all of that for you, so that you can focus on the fun parts of building!

2 red dot Cohiba boxes to sell or trade they are in really good shape... Let me know

Comment by MichaelS Country Boy Guitars on May 1, 2012 at 2:47am

I have a bunch of odd sized box's, not really CBG shaped, to square for me to use. 

Would anyone be interested ? I know I need pics but just want to see if you guys could use them first. Some are really nice all wood, some paper covered. Just not the nice rectangles I like to use. Could be amps etc.

Anyone interested in a trade for a 1/4" or 1/2" router? Its kinda built into a

table. I can send pics. I would like a decent belt sander for it.

Need to thin the herd -

I have just too many boxes for the amount of time I have to build, so I've decided to let some find new homes.  All of these boxes are in EXCELLENT condition unless noted.  ALL BOXES ARE PRICED AT $5.00 EACH PLUS SHIPPNG.  I prefer to use USPS Priority Mail as they have flat rate shipping for each box size.  One box would ship in a medium priority box @ $11.35, so it would pay to buy a bunch - I'll be happy to get a quote from the P.O. if you want.  Also, I have MANY more boxes available - If you are looking for a special box just ask, I might have it.

Sizes listed are +/- 1/8"

Thanks for looking!

La Aurora Connecticut Sapphire  9 3/4 x 8 x 1 5/8

Punch Pitas 10-5/8 x 6-5/8 x 2

Punch After Dinner English Market  9-7/8 x 7-3/4 x 2

Macanudo Gold Label Shakespeare 9-5/8 x 7-3/4 x 2

Macanudo Gold Label Tudor 10-3/4 x 6-1/2 x 2 (some bleeding of red seal)

Cohiba Toro Red Dot (2) 12-1/8 x 7-1/2 x 2

More to come!
