Hey Joe, I saw the picture of the amp, did you build it ? I was looking all over for plans for a do it yourself. If you have any info let me know.....
thanx Steve
Thanks Joe! I do feel this CBGs are gonna take over my guitar playing!
cool music track! How do you add one to your page? I like the sound of your guitar!
ayeaaaaa thanks, yup thats how I found you guys, bought a pu blindly from ebay and ted sent me here, been watching for a while didnt want to join till I at least built one. by the way my ol lady loves your janis box, you got some real nice stuff there, good voice to dude.
Joe! I just looked through your photos of CBGs. Sweet. I'm liking the whole photo cut-out thing you have going on some of them. I really dig the Johnny Cash.
keep up the nice work. -bk
hey man, thanks for the comment. i've only made about 10 are so now! but wow man i really like to have fun with it, but the head stock i think is a keeper! thanks again.
Hi Joe, I'm new to Cigar Box Nation; I builT my first one last fall, and made a cool pick up for it too, for about 5 bucks! These things are great! Normally, I play guitar & dulcimer; the one in the picture is a McSpadden 'teadrop' mountain dulcimer...Check out Mcspadendulcimers.com whe you get a chance. I'm as addicted to dulcimers as I am to CBG's! Peace, Joni
Sorry Joe - i missread your comment about the Snuff Box lol!! no it's just a Box i made from a scrap cedar cigar box divider then branded the back design with a soldering iron

juju.
hey Joe
You like the little Reso hey - it seems to have gone down well - well a little about it - i thought about making one ages since but never got round to it i was too busy building the full size ones - but of late work has dried up here in the uk so any money i had saved up has now run out which means no cash for building materials - so i built the little Reso its all i had materials for i'm just 3/4 of the way through building a mini Amp Head and Speaker Cab to go with the Reso - gonna mount it on a plinth and sort a perspex (clear) cover out to encase it - i have always hand built scale models for as long as i can remember - if you go to Brian Rommero's (cajan Bairfoot) page theres some pics i sent him of a !/18 scale british house i built in 2007 sold it now though look on his comments wall
you asked what a snuff box was ?? well snuff was a ground powder that you Snort to clear the noes and throat and drownd out bad smells - as far as i know it was used way back as a foul smell blocker - snuff box's are just a small box that held the snuff the size varies but they are small 20x20x10mm ish
why do you ask about a snuff box ?? if you dont mind me asking
Regards
juju.
hey joe. i like your cbg's. in your macunudo, what do you use on those sound holes? i build guitars with my friend charlie (cosmic charlie). and we've kept it pretty simple so far.
my family is kinda opposite. i make guitars and amps, and my dad is scared im gonna electricute myself or something, cuz he knows nothing about electrical circuits and building amps and things.
peace
Recorded with a MXL 990 Microphone that I bought used off ebay for 40 bucks. Music - from the webpage https://www.reddogguitars.com There is CBGs for sale...
