This group is for anyone who loves, has lived in, or is living in Mississippi. The state's nickname, "The Birthplace of American Music" was given to it for a reason. Mississippi is known for its invention of many primitive istruments including the diddley bow some forms of the cigar box guitar.
Lets get this party started

I plan to be there and hope all the Ms group members can attend and meet each other as well.
Welcome Dr.Moon!
Welcome Dr. Moon.
Glad to see that there is a cbg group for Mississipians (even us transplants). I live in Starkville and have been building cbgs for a couple of years. Would really like to get together with other builders in the state. I don't play worth a crap, but I really enjoy building them.
Welcome, Michael. Glad to have you aboard.
I had the pleasure of playing in Ocean Springs at the Mississippi Songwriter's Festival in 2014. Beautiful city.
