I decided to do a couple of simple mods to the CBG I got from the recent builders swap. I know, I know... you shouldn't modify something somebody else made for you... but I think the builder would approve. I wouldn't change anything about the way this guitar plays... it's great!

Thanks Richard. Steve approved so I guess I'm good. Regardless... I really like this git.

Thanks Dave. I was hoping people saw it that way but ya never know. I agree. A CBG should get played and if adding something to it makes you play it more... go for it.

I approve of modding. Any guitar I get. If you trade with me you’re going to expect change. I’ve modded my Shane Speal, my Smiling Dog, my Swamp Witch. I like to fix stuff and collaborate even if the builder might roll his eyes. It’s the way I learn from the originator. Then I play it much more also. Good video Kale. Nice sounds.
