He wanted a CBG, but he needed a 6 string. I re-purposed an Ibanez neck that someone else removed from their guitar. The box is completely filled with oak - this thing is solid. I spent a lot of time getting the action low with no fret buzz to make it as easy to play as possible for the kid. I made this sound check demo to get approval before shipping it from Atlanta to Chicago. My playing is less than perfect. I was pleased with how it turned out, but the ultimate reward was that the young man doubled his guitar lessons and started playing daily because this guitar is much easier to play than the commercial acoustic he was learning on. When I heard that, it made my week! Oh - another cool thing is that I got the box from the cigar store in the Florida town where the kid's Grampa lives (my mother lives there as well). tag:www.cigarboxnation.com,2014-07-20:2592684:Video:2056616 2014-07-20T01:31:59.258Z Mark Stowe https://www.cigarboxnation.com/profile/MarkStowe

Back again and happy to be making more videos! Sorry about the long break, I didn't have any way to record.<br /> <br /> Here we have System Of A Down, Aerials, performed on my handmade primitive three string slide cigar box guitar, it's an acoustic with eye bolts for tuners.<br /> <br /> I'm not a pro performer nor singer, but I'm always super happy to share what I've learned through building and playing these great instruments. If you've kept up with my channel, you'll see that I've proven many times that these diddley-bow instruments aren't limited to playing just blues riffs, they can be used to accompany a singing voice in almost any style of popular music. Playing is easy, it only takes one finger and some rhythm!<br /> <br /> Have a great day and thanks for watching! :) tag:www.cigarboxnation.com,2011-07-10:2592684:Video:655421 2011-07-10T00:26:45.927Z Crow https://www.cigarboxnation.com/profile/Crow
