Hey folks,

Today I recieved my CBG. Well it is not really a CBG because it is made of a wine Box.

The guitar is build by Jos Maesen. He owns a little company called "Smoking Strings Box Guitars" in Hechtel-Eksel, Belgium.

Nice looking box guitar Rene - people here make guitars out of biscuit tins, bed warmers, records, kitchen sinks, ...you name it!  (-;

Thank You for your comment.

The guitar sounds great, probably due to the size of the box. It has a deep, bluesy tone, just what I like

Gr.
