(Yeah, I have been slow to post pics as well.... I still have a ton that haven't made their way onto the site but the builds you have posted are AWESOME!). BTW- thanks for the nice comments re me canitar build - it's fun and I love playing around with different ideas that produce different sounds.... that license plate reso of yours looks amazing!! Congrats on a great build! Best regards, MM
Hey Joni, Thanks. Those tuners on my two stringer came off of a cheapie (crappy) 6-string, acustic guitar I bought for 10 bucks. It used in-line tuners but one of the gears stripped so I cut off the bad one and used the two good ones for the 2-string canjo. Worked out ok! You can see the other in-line tuner set on one of my other builds in the photos.
Thanks for the nice comment Joni, I love the way it sounds too. I only wish my practice was improving. Most things in life have come easily for me. Not so for music. I'll just keep trying and hopefully make the jump to an actual song one of these days. Thanks again. How does that license plate reso sound?

Thank you for your comment about my video. Yes, please contact me when you are in the NYC area. Hopefully we can get together. Looking foward to your contribution to the "How to Play CBG" group. Enjoy.
Fantastic. I completely undertand about having too many irons in the fire. LOL Yes, you are correct, your input will be greatly appreciated. There really is a shortage here of instructional videos and a great desire to learn to play. I definately appreciate your help. Enjoy.
