Well, my blog disappeared again. Last trying, attaching to a picture, perhaps this works...
Thank you for the comments, very much. It was unfamiliar a bit to me posting and blogging, the web surface have played a trick on me, and that's why I sent a short bio like this. The documentation is NOT that "tabu" -address, of course. If you interested in the DiY-way of the CBG-making, the full link is this: http://www.tabulatura.hu/blasius/cbg/index.htm
(As I mentioned, this is commented in Hungarian, but the pictures are clear, I mean. Or should I translate it?)
We in Eastern Europe are far from the Delta, we don't have viewing onto the world of it, only from books, films, and we never had that cultural background what the blues was born in, that's why European people generally speak about the "original" blues, as something what is played by ZZ Top, perhaps BB King, the people who made the blues popular and "more consumable"- I don' t state this about every blues fan, but often when I show or play music from the original Delta, the people who claim itself as blues fans say "well, very odd, but this is not so cool, I prefer the _real_ blues" - but they even think the delta blues is boring. But what does it mean: real? Hm...
I work for traditions as early music player. This tradition is important too. When we play on stage instrument-guide concerts, I often talk about the plucked instruments. Although the CBG is not a medieval instrument, but is a historical one, and as folk instrument, I think, will be the part of my archaic instrument museum, as a unique, interesting and very characteristic one.
