Its the weekend before memorial Day and I built as many 1 stringers as I could for this weekend.I brought a total of 7 Didely Bows and 2 3 stringers.I sold all the 1 stringers I had of the wood type Cigar box and 1 of the 3 stringers.For the last couple of weekends I have noticed a trend in my area.Paint it RED and its as good as sold,,,,,,.2 of the 1 stringers I painted RED ,1 with a matching red neck and 1 with a wood grain neck.The ALL RED DB was the 1st to go out the door.the other was sold this afternoon.My total for the weekend was,8 DB's1 3I think this week will be a busy workshop week in between working my REAL job and trying to stay ahead of the demand.I also added a new tool for my sales pitch, I now use my laptop on the table turned so customers can see a constant slide show of old instruments while I explain some of the history of the CBG.The public is FASCINATED with this CBG thing.and like they say ,"a picture is worth a 1000, words!"
