Hello from Minnesota!

hey, how’s it goin? I’ve knower about cbgs for a long time, but for some reason about 2 years ago, it hit me... cbgs are awesome and I need to make and play them! I’ve barely touched my 6 string guitars sense I finished up my first cigar box guitar. I’ve been following cigar box nation on Facebook for awhile now, thought I’d get involved with the website. Thanks for having me!!
