Thanks! Your build looks sweet. I bought myself a bowl from a resale shop and some bloodwood to make a simplified sitar. I'm having trouble finding a "top" to the bowl though. Maybe a circular cutting board...?
Thank you Tres. I heard back from their website. Apparently the lyrics are on the new CD, The Wages. I ordered it the other day. So I should be good to go. Additionally, a studio version is usually easier to understand. Enjoy.
thanks dude i really like this site an i enjoy looking at others CBG my CBG might not be as good as others but i like mine is diffrent i might even be getting a job here soon building them it would be cool well got to go
later.
hello Seaver's

Thanks Tres, I'm currently building 4 different CBG's and 2 Cajone's. I want to start up an all CBG Band up here in Alaska. I think it will be a real hoot up here in all of the coffee shops and fair venues we have up here. Later ............... Your Great Alaskan Sourdough CBG Band.................. ............
Thanks for the welcome. I am involved in several instrument communities. I love instruments and building them. I have been a luthier for many years. I have worked with wood since I was in my teens. I have played an instrument since I was 5 years old. I don't know if I play any better now than I did then. I do play madolin and fiddle at church each Sunday. I had some folks over today and we ate chili, banana pudding and played music all day. Anyway thanks George

Hello Tres, thanks for the warm welcome!! You're right, seems anything you need to know about CBG'S is on this site. It's a great site and I'm glad that I found out about it. My thanks to everyone involved with the site!! Jim!!!!!!!
I am really starting to like it here. There is so much going on I cannot hardly believe it Tres. Have you seen any Group/Groups whos topic is mainly wiring up a CBG's? I really would like to add Vol, Tone and Mix Potis on my new build. I Like your page as well - nice pics and music man.
I have been a very passive viewer of CBG Builders for quite a while. I have a few builds behind me. I am however not a player. I play harp but really dig building things and if it can make music all the better. You can view a few of my builds at bruzbluz.multiply.com. They are in the photo section. WARNING!! Nerd Factor. I live in Germany but was born and raised in Minnesota as you can hear on my vids ya know. Take care and do good man!! -Bruce
