[Cigar Box Guitar] - AGP #131 ''Rocky Mahog'' 07 October 2017 "Paris Texas"

AGP #131 “Rocky Mahog” - (3 String Baritone CBG) - Scale: 736.6mm / 29 inches - Strings: .0.46NW / .036NW / .026NW - Tuning: DAd

Built this 24 Fret Baritone beast 3 years ago originally for the purpose of playing Nigel McTrustry's great!, and easy!, to follow online lesson of his version of "Paris Texas", Thank You Nigel for posting this one, and, all your other great lessons, probably sounds nothing like Nigel’s or Ry Cooders version, so apologies to both, but it is what is: the “Ham Fisted Bricklayers” version of this great tune, it’s played through a modified version of the ’57 Fender Deluxe setting on my 40 Watt Fender Mustang II Amp.

"Thanks Bones", no church goers this time (I Think?), I done this one yesterday, Saturday!, just had to look up what build #168 was!, "Brushy" of course, I'll see if I can come up with something on it in the future, it's a bit of a fun muck around type of build, to get some idea of what it's about, check out "Brushy One String" on Utube :-D

"Thanks Richard", early morning in my part of the world at the moment, also my favourite part of the day   :-)

Deep rustic goodness! Thumbs up all around at the HFB association and information center. Sounding darn authentic to me, AGP!
