Cigar Box Guitar: 4-stringer The Busker, tuned Bb-F-Bb-C#. A jazzy little ditty that made a good finger workout. Enjoy!

Jim,

When I do it right (like when I played it as a warmup 5 minutes before doing the vid), it FEELS just like flying! Something about the cam in my face causes me to lose focus, and screw up...odd time to get nerves. Re the potbelly...maybe I should change my screen name to Potbelly...then me and HB could tour as The Bellies!
