Thanks Glenn! You are correct (and really, really good at it!), I did not mention the blues (the original by Rob Gray featured it!) which is, without a doubt, the most promoted playing style on cigar box guitars. I have been inspired by ukulele clubs who play and sing popular songs together. My emphasis also reflects my skill set and musical preferences (which the other Slingers have been slowly expanding!).

Quite cool indeed! But... you didn't mention blues my bro.! ;) Seriously, cool, good idea indeed. -Glenn

Thanks Kale! I’m trying to get the CBG word out in engaging ways.

Glad you enjoyed the sign BrianQ! I did some minor editing of Rob Gray’s (U.K.) sign as pictured in the July 2023 issue of Cigar Box Review Magazine. He inspired me to up my game! You can find it here: CBG Review Back Issues
