- Hello, my name is Ron and I am utterly and completely obsessed.
I maintain a large album of images of my #CigarBoxGuitar builds on my public page, No Strings Attached - Don't Fret. Constructive feedback is always appreciated. I have been building now for about 9 months - maybe a little over 25 or 26 guitars since I started.
You can view the image album here: https://www.facebook.com/NoStringsNoFret/photos/?tab=album&albu...
About 4 months ago I have rented out a little shop to do my work and I love it!
I recently started my own CBG Community and would love to see you there as well as here,
https://www.facebook.com/groups/CigarBoxGuitarCommunity/
I joined every possible CBG community group I could find this past week and have been making connections and adding friends - sharing my work. Everyone, the community has been so welcoming and pleasant. It reminds me of the York, PA festival a few weeks back where in-person made new friends and had a good conversation with a bunch of awesome folks. I love this work, probably a bit to much at times, and I love my newly found community.
Thank you guys.
Ron
