BrianQ.

Thanks Brian. I've been "lurking" around "the nation" for the last few months while I did a few builds. There is an amazing amount of information exchanged here and if I think I've got anything that others may benefit from I'll be sure to share. 

Thanks Brian,

Glad to be on board.

Thanks for the welcome

Thanks for the feedback BrainQ, i did file a report, and wait what comes out

Thank You.

Thank you!

Thank you Brian for the welcome! Great site and community, I am glad to join.

Cheers Brian...nice to be here

Thanks!

Thanks for the info.  I have bought a couple of cigar boxes and starting to plan my first build.  Probably have some questions along the way.  Looks like this site is a great source of info.  Thanks.

Brian, I know this is a long time in coming, but thank you! I finally got aroundtoit looking around on my page.

I think it was more about 1.My skill level at the time, and 2. the detail work. I just didn't have confidence back then, and also somewhat a lack of funds and time. The thing that wigs me out is attaching the neck to the box.

Thanks. I am feeling VERY confident about the lap steels. I think there is the potential for me to turn out some pretty nice pieces.

Caveat... These are NOT going to be furniture woodworker quality, but they will not be hacked junk either. I'm looking at it as half folk art...

Thank you Brother, glad to be here !!!

Thank You. I look forward to checking out that video.

Hi Brian, Thanks for the welcome. I have been watching videos from Glenn and Dell and enjoy their videos very much. I have been looking at everythin I could find on cigar box guitars. I hope to find more time to work on my build and on my playing. Thanks again.

Thank you

Thank you for the warm Welcome!

I am sure as the time goes by I will have boat loads of questions !

Thanks for letting me join.I'm only interested in the 6 strings models.

My First CBG is going to be made with a snapper turtle shell, 3 strings, poplar neck ( I already have these things ). Haven't decided how i'm going to close up the back of the shell yet, maybe just a 1/4 inch birch ( from 1 of my flooring jobs) cut to fit. Any ideas would be helpful. Also have not decided on what kind of pickup to use. Thanks, Bob.

Thank you, BrianQ. . I am pretty excited about all this. You all look like a great bunch. But I have a question, please: Is there a teacher or mentor who can help me get started? I live in the Northern Virginia suburbs of Washington, D.C. I'd love some help from an experienced player to speed me along on this exciting journey. Thanks for any help. Les Potter

Thanks, Brian.

I just purchased my first cbg built in 2015 and signed McLeary, i believe. I may need to learn any upgrades. But, also going to learn to play. Happy to be in the CBN! THANKS!

Plan on building something this winter.....Saw these at the Va, State Fair last week

Awesome site! Thanks!

Thanks Brian. I have saved this video along with others, Hope to get started soon. 

Thanks Brian, there certainly is a lot of info on this site so I'll be spending some time here for sure. I'm brand new to building CGB's and to playing an instrument too.

I'm on lesson 2 of Patrick Curley's 3 string fret course over at learningcigarboxguitar.com! whoohooo

Thanks for the suggestion ... I'll go take a look. Were you able to recover my earlier history etc.?

I have now printed off his 23" template which I will use on my next guitar. In ukes I prefer Tenor scale which is 21". If I do produce something I'll post some pictures. I will put up some pics also of earlier completed projects if I can find them!

Thanks for letting me join! I know I will learn a lot from everyone and enjoy my time here.

Thanks, BrianQ! I’ve been building since the beginning of the year and having fun interacting with the folks at Gitty. I’m looking forward to learning more from the folks around here and contributing where I can.

Thanks for the comment Brian

Thanks, Brian.  I am looking forward to interact and see what everyone is up to.  I am new to Cigar Box Guitars and am about 1/4 of the way done with my first attempt at building my own.

Cheers!
