"Thanks George. I always recommend fellow builders who want to get involved to check with their local Legion or Veterans Facility and see if they have a guitar jam night. Music is therapy so lots of Legions etc have some type of music…"
"Mr. Dervaric, I was referring to whole idea of what you and your dad are doing for service persons by sending them CBGs. That's the thing I wish I had thought of to do. Y'all are AWESOME to the N'th.

"None of what we do for veterans and service personnel would have been possible without the great work done by Diane and my friend Dan Sleep who looked after the CBG for Soldiers program when it was active. We wouldn't even have started down…"

Is there a way that I can get in touch with you?
On my various travels over the last few years, I’ve been haunting cigar stores hunting up boxes for builds for myself. I enjoyed the hunt but now have way too many and have about 10 liquor boxes full of good cigar boxes (suitable for guitars) that I will not use. I live south of Ottawa but from time to time head to the Toronto area.
I wondered if you could use them, and if so, how I could get your address so I could load up the SUV and deliver them?

Hi Henry,
I just happened back on your kind comment on my Highway 61 Blues song. Hey, sir. Take a crack at it. I would love to hear you do it maybe with Ms Ashley on percussion or helping in some fashion.

- Hi Henry, The scale is a matter of preference. A short scale, 13-15 inches will give you a mandolin sound, the longer scales will change the tunings lower and lower, according to where you want your range to be, that is, a guitar is usually between 24-27 inches, a bass can be from 30-41 inches. You will have to use the appropriate gauge string for the scale length. Clear?
