How to Develop Vibrato with Your Guitar Slide - by Shane Speal

"I get the BEST wobbly tremolo sound outa an 11/16 Deep Well socket.   Heavy on top, it wobbles very easily with little wrist effort.    My "Trademark" slide with the most Mojo is a heavy wall glass slide w/ a rattlesnake…"

What do you find most interesting about cigar box guitars? (If you do not enter something meaningful here (at least one sentence long), your membership may be rejected as a spam/bot fake account).
Home-Built by normal "REAL" people. Low co$t any "everyday" person can afford to build. Also & perhaps most importantly Shane & others I have seen on CB Nation seem to freely share ideas & talent from the Heart - not a profit making business venture. I consider it a privilege to be included in such a fellowship. I WILL make it down south (after Covid lets up) & play with you folks at the next CBG Festival.

Thanks Brian for email instructions on how to participate in this digital format.

So am I doing this "blog" thing right ? Can people see my text AND picture of my CBG ?

This computer stuff really is a struggle for me & I would really rather travel down to Louisiana to some CBG Festival & meet some of you guys and Jam !

Guess Covid-19…
