Built this for my son for Christmas 2010. Its made with White Oak, Jatoba and Ebony. The box is Punch Chataeu L English Market (Bob's Favorite) and the size & shape were perfect. It has 1 rod & 1 disc piezo wired to a 3 way and volume. 10 minutes from the workbench, my son stopped right where I handed it to him, quick tune, and played this song for me.

If you want to hear him at his best, follow this link to the Thirty Nine Thoughts PPK press kit. It has the audio & lyrics to their last (2nd) CD.  http://www.myppk.com/PPKs/indexC.aspx?PPK=7712   it knocks my socks off everytime I listen to them. Of course, i have the CD, but then again, Im Dad :)  He's already agreed to another/better video. And I think I said it might have been Jason Mraz, but it was a Jack Johnson song.

nice looking neck

I'll vote for another video, as well.  Your son is really good.  makes this old man a wee bit jealous, in fact (but in a good way!).

Thanks all. I'm a retired cop turn motorcycle wrench and can only play a radio. Just finished a 2nd CBG for me to learn on. I'm gonna share these comments w my son, see if he'll do another video. He's a good kid so....? :)

A strong second on a full video with the Kid!

Dang he's got to do a longer video, really sounds good
Comment by Uncle John on March 25, 2011 at 8:21am
As the others have said,  cool build and this kid has a pleasing good voice and played nicely too.  That sounded like a storebought fretted guitar.  Much good on ya.
