Let me know and I'll drop you off a chunk next time I'm over in Stage Coach
Jeffrey, I was in King Dollar in Tomball yesterday and saw they had some Stainless Steel dog dishes, 6 in in diameter for a buck and a quarter. They were pretty decent.
Just got time to go over my page and take a peek at what else is on this site. I think I'll have plenty of folks to get good info from. Have you been playing a CBG long? I've never played one and sucked at slide guitar on my six string. Hoping less strings will help.
Hi Jeffrey. Sorry I didn't see your post. We were travelling but now at home. Nice to know there is someone else with the same interests living nearby. I can't make up my mind on building a 3-string or a 4-string so I think I'll build both. Always looking for advice and input.
