What do you find most interesting about cigar box guitars? (If you do not enter something meaningful here (at least one sentence long), your membership may be rejected as a spam/bot fake account).
I am a six string guitar player interested in the great sound of the cigar box guitar
I hear you..Ibought first guitar in 76...But didn't stick with it...Picked it up on and off again through the years...Wish I would have played all those years...Same thing with piano....Seems like I spend more time building than playing
hi Richard, I like the Payback guitar. one thing you should do is title and add descriptions to your photos - click options above the photo and then edit. it's good to have you for a cbn friend.
Richard is one of my new friends, he will be an amazing addition to cigar box nation. He is an amazing player and video artist. Let's help him all we can. Plus he is a Vietnam vet.
We all need a smile that your videos put on ones face. Can't wait to hear the songs you play on a CBG. Vietnam era vet also. Have been here for a few years, but as of yet, have no CBG's, but do have stuff to build a few.
Thanks richard ! i Do my artie picture thing co'se for me its a big hassle to get a 5 min song on video uploaded on youtube, for 5 min i have to download say 6 to 7 hours, if its a movie, if i do the same thing whit pictures its done in half a hour or less, so thats why! im not that keen on moving pictures! for this format that is i still do them but on ocasion! but thanks for your comments on the last one Thanks !
Sorry must decline on that, its to fine a acoustic player to cut in the box for a pick up i have all sorts of other way to alternate the sound in the mix or recording,its the same thing as whit the tin cigar boxes its often a shame to cut in it, and lose the acoustic quality of the box /tin/ Plate, and that goes for the Licence plates aswell, i call it the "Banjo effect" cant cut up a skin!
i read this fasinating article from a greek luther KERTSOPOULOS Aesthetics (google him) on resonance and sound on and in wood, in a body ,you can find some on the topic on snuffy's Discussion on what the best box for acoustic CBG? ther are a ton of ideers on the subject, and a hole bunch of guy's and builders have done investications on the mater.
So before going about reinventing the wheel again, we do a bit of reading up on the subject and put one and two together to come up whit adapted new!, but im rambeling on! hope you get my drift ! Greeeeettssszz A.D.
Thanks Rick ! Yep it was both my sons ,one on telefoon camera, and one on vocals running away from Bones screeming Oh NO ! (High Pitch) and me say'd the fool, coming to get him !!
Track two is a little more Harch, i plan to do a Bass line to it, becouse i think u have taken up all the grass that was infront of me, i cant seem to get a git in there ,maybee a short burst of some thing will see, the vocal part will be hard to ,Maybee ( ask my son again ) i have a bad cold cant get rid off, been coughing somewhat lately. sound so bad in the middle of the track!! so later !
