Hey,

I live here in Webster, NY and am looking for an alternative guitar player to join in a duo project.  I thought I would reach out to some of my fellow local CBN members to see if you, or someone you know, has any interest in a project like this..

 

If you are at all interested, there is a much better explanation of this project online at www.sweettmusic.webs.com

 

Peace,

Tracy

Thank you for your interest. Although the lessons are based on a 3 string fretted CBG, it will provide insight into applicable scales, harmony and the single notes that can be used to express chords. By learning musical theory, you will understand how to apply it to meet your unique needs. In general, playing unfretted is learning to get more out of less. I think you will find it helpful for unfretted CBG, but in the future, if you decide to build a fretted CBG, it will fully clearify your understanding of the fingerboard. Enjoy.

Hey!!!!!!!!!!
Welcome to the forum,and the world of the very addictive CBG.
After you get more comfortable with your playing you might want to talk to 1 of the guys here in this site and think about a high dollar rig later on.
Next time your in town stop by and say "HI" ,I wont even try to sell ya somethin LOL

Welcome aboard, DBGCAMP! You will find lots of helpful folks and information here on all things CBG (CBU, CBB, etc.) Feel free to poke around, ask questions, and post your stuff (photos, recordings, videos, etc.).

Up in the Free Resources menu at the top, you will see a number of plans for building and playing cigar box guitars/ukuleles/banjos/dulcimers/violins. I encourage you to download any of the plans, take a look at them, and ask questions from there. Also our site is VERY searchable. I bet you your questions have already been asked, so take a few moments and look around.

Join our Chat sometime (see the bar at the bottom of your browser page). Keep in mind that tho the chat window says there are X number of people online, not all may have the chat window up.

Most of all, have fun!

-Wes
