- Internet.

- Eleven.
- What do you find most interesting about cigar box guitars? (If you do not enter something meaningful here, your membership may be rejected).
- CBG's have provided me with a new and enjoyable interest, whether I am building one or playing (I started learning to play and build in 2017) They have also revived my interest in folk, rock and blues. I enjoy listening to the music and watching the performers. I am developing and working on my own CBG music material.
