My first instrument build

"Thanks Uncle John. Yeah, I had no idea about CB Gitty at that time. I honestly don’t remember when I built it…sometime in the early 2000’s. I just remember dremeling out the slots for the flush frets and fighting with a nasty buzz…"

My first instrument build

"A good looker.  Yup, got to build em' strong or the necks bow.   Other than the pick-up, this look like a very nice build from circa 2008 when I was first building.   Either CB Gitty was not around yet or word had not…"

My first instrument build

Sleepy Fox ‘AT Guide” CBG

"Yep. Read the book by Cheryl Strayed. Can’t come up with the title just now. I think they made it into a movie with Reece Witherspoon. Can’t vouch for the movie, but the book was good!"

Sleepy Fox ‘AT Guide” CBG

"I hope you can find "The Way".  It's so good that Linda and I have seen it 3-4 times.  There's also a pretty good book by, I think Cheryl Strayed, on walking the Pacific Coast Trail.  And a book called I'll…"

Sleepy Fox ‘AT Guide” CBG

"I have read Bryson’s book. The part where his buddy dumped out most of his pack on the first climb cracked me up! I’ll have to check out “The Way”. I’ve read a lot about the Camino and it would be awesome to do it."

Sleepy Fox ‘AT Guide” CBG

"I used to want to do the trail too.  Now I am more wishing to do the pilgrimage camino in Spain.   Probably too old and poor to get it done.  Have you read Bill Bryson's book about the Ap. Trail?  Fun read.  Or see…"

The Sleepy Fox - Troy

"Thanks! One of these days I’ll clean it up and post a pic.  It’s amazing how much stuff you can jam in a garage when you put your mind to it!"

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).
