Excellent work....I hope you don't mind, but I'm going to start working on a 3-fret CBG tonight. Thanks for the inspiration!

Yep ! great idea !

Thank´s for all comments, the frets are 2nd, 5th and 7th, the 2nd is very cool to play intro riffs and we can use in some songs, the open chord, 5th and 7th to make a blues sequence, we can play lots of songs with those 3 frets.

bye

Great, the compliment got clipped .
Rafael, nice work, I won't be surprised if there is a flurry of 3 fret boxes as a result of your post.
Thanks,
PRH

The guy does nice work too.

Damn, not bad Rafael! Great tune, and it's in tune too.
