  • Hello,
    I have started a CBN group entitled, "How to Play CBG" It is my hope and intention to encourage the "Wealth of Talent" here on the Nation to share their knowledge and skill to further the CBG movement. Please consider contributing an instructional "video" link to this group. If you are a viewer seeking instruction, please feel free to write. If you have any suggestions or know other players who you think may want to post instructional "video" links, please contact me. Thank you for your interest and support, Keni Lee
  • I cut the lid off, carefully remove a strip of trimming, (comes off easier than the sticker)flip the whole thing over, glue the trimming down and nail the bugger back on. In some cases, there is better art on the inside of the lid.
  • Eucalyptus oil does the trick nicely. Sometimes its best to do your own sticker over the ugly cancer blah sticker...seen some pretty funny ones actually.
  • I'm told a hair-dryer will help the stickers to peel off -- washing and fingernailing just don't work.
  • Actually, i have a reasonable amount of Cedar suitably thicknessed, that i have used for other folk instruments that i have made. I could easily make appropriately sized "cigar boxes".

    Would that be classed as "Cheating"? I think I would miss the authenticity!
