...you order twice as many tuners as you need and say, "Eh, I'll use them anyway".
...you have a dozen cigar boxes and still want to stop by the cigar shop for more. (I may miss "the one".)
...you're in a deep conversation with your spouse or significant other. She is talking about important things like budget or dinner and all you can think about is the new bridge design you've been working on.
...you have 6 to 10 CBGs and you need to make another because they just don't sound/look "right".
...you actually sell a guitar and celebrate by ordering twice as many tuners as you need.
...you consider Home Depot a music store.
...hangin' and twangin' is a legitimate way to spend an evening.
...you try to hammer out every song you've ever heard on a 3 string. (Some work. Some don't.)
...you start applying the "no rules" rule to every area of your life!
...you clean out the closet/garage and ask yourself, "How would that look on a git?" before you toss anything in the trash. (Perhaps a separate bucket.)
...you have no problem adding your DNA (blood) to a build.
...you brag to your friends that you have joined the Nation, Cigar Box Nation that is.
...you watch a truck commercial narrated by Sam Elliot and think, "I could play the sound track for that on my CBG."
...nothing in you house is sacred. Baseball bats, hockey sticks, broom sticks all become fair game.

Feel free to add to the list. ;)
Sounds like CBG is a decor at your place. Mine is contained to one room but I am just getting started.
...Christmas presents:CBG, birthday presents: CBG....
Golf tees? Hmmmm... ;)
.....the cigar shop owner knows your name and you don't smoke.
.....you end up on "the watch list" because you buy so much tru-oil.
.....you can "see" the neck in any piece of wood whether it is a broken pallet, coffee table, or heirloom.
....the kids are crying because "daddy took my lunchbox and is out in the garage cutting on it!"
Nice!
-- trying to come up with a stage name like Seasick Steve. (Anthrax Alan?) ;)
-- every song you hear is in key of G. (G-D-g)
lol at #13
Hammer out every tune you ever heard on 3 string .... Guilty yer honour ! :-D
When you have 7 expensive electric guitars. The only one you want to play is the one you took three strings off of.
Every time you discuss a family purchase, you mentally calculate how many tuners, pickups, fret wire or red oak lumber that $ would buy.
You need more than one.
...when you answer the question, "Which one is your favorite?" with "I ain't made it yet!"
Hey guys, thanks for helping out with this list. I am contemplating putting some of these in a song. I will put it together and make a vid. Do not hold your breath. I am slow. ;)
