<p>A good alternative to traditional 6 string tuning is to tune the 3 low string or 2 low strings for a low E or low D tuning to simulate Bass lines and use the 3 or 4 high strings for other tunings for CBG style playing.</p>
<p>Don't let 6 strings intimidate you, just view it as 2 guitars in one on one neck.</p>

I love the detail, but don’t cut yourself short there are very good videos to help us learn on the 3 string instrument.

<p>Hi Amir if you was referring to the photo of the CBG in the thumbnail photo here, yes it is as you describe.</p>
<p>Its a CBG designed and built to acoustic guitar specs and considerations. It was an experiment to show me how much better a "box" guitar can sound if the "rules" re acoustics are utilised. </p>
<p>Yes it does have a pre amp EQ fitted with under saddle piezo pickup, but when used, all sliders are at zero with just the volume up as it does not seem to nead any extra…</p>

<p>I use phosphor bronze strings and it's a joy to play and hear. Thanks for the comment Amir.</p>

<p>hi there</p>
<p></p>
<p>this is not a pre-made neck, I actually build it from scratch by laminating 5 pcs. sapele and maple.</p>
