Comment by keith peterson on August 28, 2010 at 12:32pm: I love the way you recycled old guitars with your builds Uncle John, you also do some reall good work, I have a couple of junk guitars just for parts.

Comment by Uncle John on August 28, 2010 at 9:21am: I've been building CBGs for years now, but just recently discovered 2 strings. I have built 1strings, 3s, lots of 4s, a couple 5s and 6 strings. 2 stringers are easy to build and lots of fun. :)
