i am absolute beginner, so I just completed 1st build that was a kit by C.B. Gitty. I hope to try the next one on my own. I have a comacho cigar box to use, still planning it out.

At 12:46am on August 31, 2020, John Lotspeich said…: Thanks for the welcome and accepting me to the Nation. I am currently building a special tele style guitar, but once that is finished, I have been collecting parts for my next cigar box guitar. I used a fender neck on my last build, but think I will try my hand at a home made neck on the next one. Stretching my wings you might say.

At 2:51pm on March 10, 2020, Kevin Dingwall said…: Thanks Darryl!

At 5:03am on January 13, 2020, Graham Hooker said…: Thanks for the help offer..I will probably ask questions as I go. I am looking forward to the first build a little later this year.

Cheers

At 10:43am on November 23, 2019, Ben Ridgeway said…: Greetings from Missouri!

Thank you sir , fun build

At 10:56am on September 5, 2019, Lou Ellis said…: Thanks for the invitation, Darryl. I like the bone nuts. I buy the blanks from CB Gitty. I would make my own from dog bones, but I don't have the power tools for the job. I guess a hack saw would work?

At 5:02pm on April 3, 2019, Steebos Kalist said…: Thanks. No, I've never gone to a meeting there. I did stop by the CBG festival there last year. I might have to go check it out sometime.

Craiglist story

Posted on January 27, 2017 at 1:50am 4 Comments 6 Likes

I'm a Craiglist free stuff addict....Saw a radial arm saw listed...But by the time I found the house...It was gone...Get an email two days later saying guy never showed up....It was mine if I wanted it....That made my day....Will come in handy for cutting fret slots..Gave the guy some cash for his time and effort...Still made out pretty good on the deal

finger joint jig

gotta love it when you spend a few hours making a finger joint jig, and just about the time that you think that its running good, the index pin snaps off...hopefully the glue joint repair will hold up...oh well, enough whining for now

license plate guitar

Posted on August 15, 2016 at 12:52am 3 Comments 0 Likes

just finished my first license plate guitar...guess what i ran into most is, body brace blocks getting in way of input jacks. or the pickup cavity cutting in too deep into the neck . already started on 2nd one, gave the first one away for a birthday gift.
