A brief rudimentary lesson on tuning and some CBG basics.

Careless John,
hmm . . . awful sounding when you go up the neck? Maybe the intonation is off? (I like to drop that fancy term cuz it makes me sound smart) hehe - but it just means that maybe the frets (or fret markers) are not located properly? How did you arrive at the positions for the frets?
Knotlenny you make this look simple but Iv'e been struggling man ...!!! when I slide to the 7th and 5th it sounds awful ...!!!
Very good video, simple and to the point.
Decided to get really 'with it' and have changed my name to Blind Lemon Tea following my cataract surgery!
new to cigar box guitars. Bought one at Newcastle guitar show from Chickenbone John. Can't put it down. Written four songs already. No rules no limits! Great video too.
Hello
Hi im very new with the cbg but id love to know about 12 songs or so that is played the same way as Mabelline . I still don't have it down that good but its getting there . Thanks Bob
Hi, hoping to purchase my first CBG very soon. I have heard arguments for both sides but truly which is the best to start off with, a 3 or 4 string. I have it in my mind a 4 string will be harder simply because it has 4 strings and not 3. If I get good enough (hopefully) on 3 strings will I be annoyed I did not get a 4 string, confusion yes.

Excellent, very helpful.
