Cigar Box Builders Decree
The Cigar Box Guitar Builders Decree (Well, mine anyway) 1. The finish does not have to be mirror quality. If it is basically the same color all over, thats good enough. Why do you think they call it “stain”. 2. The neck does not have to be as…

Being a newbie (at 76) I was wanting to build a Piezo and a Magnetic P/U to see the difference. With spare parts available, I was wondering if one had to use a 3 pole P/U for a 3 string and a 4 pole P/U for 4 string etc. or if even a large P/U for…

Bill - I thought I remembered that you were in Norman. Not too far from Edmond! About 5-6 months ago, a place called "Joe's Work Shop" opened up near my office near Memorial Road and Santa Fe in North OKC/Edmond. It offers memberships with access to lots of power woodworking tools. The folks there really like my CBG's and would like me to offer a class; in fact I've been showing one of the guys there how to build them. He's certainly caught the bug, and it's all I can do to try and keep him from going off the deep end! Would be cool to meet someday! Gary
I didn't really know about this site. But I love it.
Hi Bill, just message me your address and the ones you'd like (or give me some measurements to select from). I'll mail a packet with my return address and you can send a check. All the slides are the same price. 10$ post paid. Thanks for the interest. I'll be happy to send some your way. .... Dave
Thanks for the friends request Bill. Glad to be a friend. .... Dave
Bill i found this and thought you might enjoy it.
"The Glory Days" and I missed them.
But we can still make them live again.

Bill Capacitors are our friends. Might go a long ways to clear that up. I have both those tubes in abundance. I have two SB-1000's to the left and right of me. I am a old 160 hand on 1.880 LSB. I have not been active for a while. But ready to go his Winter. Using a Double Extended Zepp, my favorite for 160. I have been repairing and restoring Hethkits for years. My other passion. Some Health problems had me down for a couple years, but on the mend. I would have expected maybe a 6EA8 in there somewhere. I have a lot to learn. I have been tossing this around in my mind. The standard SB line audio board with a bit more amplification on the back end? Your thoughts? I can replicate the board easily.
Curious is the Amp from a print or Home brew? Very interested in Amps.
Very nice Bill!
