Hi all. I'm new to this group, been building for a few months now. I've built 5, including a 6 string electric. Not much of a player, but have a lot of fun with it. I'm in Mount Sterling, 22 mile SW of Columbus.

Hello Buckeye builders and players! I'm Mike from Put-in-Bay. I've got 4 builds under my belt and ready to start learning how to play. What started out as a father/son weekend project to learn how to use wood working/hand tools has now turned into such a great hobby. Such a great site to share ideas and music!

Hi i'm from port clinton OH up by lake erie.I started building these things over the summer .I 've built about 6 of so far. Right now i'm building a pickup winder so i can try to make some 3 and 4 string pickups.

Eventually I think we could get together for a little "fest" of sorts. We get enough of us to keep in touch and share ideas it could happen. I have driven down to Huntsville Alabama 2 years in a row now. It's been fun, but would be less driving if we could get something together here.

Hey Jess...I think that would be cool. I don't know though man they are spread out over the entire state. It would definitely be informative and fun.

Hi All, I'm Al Allen (aka Hangten) Retired and living in Powell, OH just north of Columbus. Started building last year and have built 5 CBG and I'm working on a CB Ukulele at present. Trying to learn to play the UKE at present. Would love to meet others in OH who share this interest. Go Bucks!
Comment by Jess on February 21, 2010 at 4:18pm
Hi Tim: What do you think about attempting to gather us mid-Ohio CBG builders in a casual meet to share ideas and to get acquainted? I'm not sure the best route to take, but it may be fun. Your thoughts?
Comment by Tim Fleischer on February 21, 2010 at 1:01pm
I from Bexley which is a little suburb smack in the middle of Columbus. I play guitar and keys and started building CBG's in Dec 09. Have built 3 so far.
Comment by Jess on February 10, 2010 at 5:51pm
I got into the CBG thing about two months ago after reading a magazine blurb and doing research on the web. It is the most interesting, fun and rewarding hobby that I've been involved with. I have built seven, with photos shared on the Nation site, so far and there are a whole lot more ideas in the mill. I live in Mansfield and I'm plesed to se that there are others in Ohio who are interested. Perhaps we can get loosely organized for idea sharing, etc.
