Hey Darren, I get to Halifax about once a year, I've never been to the Valley, but I've always wanted to go, it seems like a great place to vacation for a few days. Perhaps I'll take my wife and kids there this summer. Any music festivals going on that I should get to? I can make vacation plans to take one in.

Welcome aboard, Darren! 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. -- I see you are ahead of [me here).
Hi Darren,
Wow, thanks for the note. Nice to hear that Canada appreciates me!
You've made quite a lot of instruments... Fantastic.
My CigarBox Ukulele Number 2 has been waiting on me for months
but next week i finally have time to finish it up.
Well, thanks again for stopping by. Very nice.
Friendly greetings,
Shelley.
Hello Darrin. Thanks for the tip on Daves guitars in van. Next time I cross the pond I"ll have to check it out.You have quite the collection of cbgs. Have"nt started on mine yet, just trying to figure it out first.Reading all the material on the cbg site. I have been trying to find a copy of Bill Jehle dvd on how to build a cbg.Apparently you used to be able to buy them on EBay but I can"t find them. I"ve built lots of things out of wood. From a ten ton carvel planked sailboat to cedar strip canoes kayaks to furniture so I"m sure I can build a cbg by the information on the CBG Nation web site. By for now.
