Sure Will, glad to help out. It was alot of fun.  Thanks for all you did too.  It was great to talk to some other builders and players, looking forward to another meeting.

Thanks too, I see you inquired about the group---my life gets so busy--I honestly fell away for visits here,..just alot going on, I also have online sale and family commits.... I should pass the torch with the group , to anyone wanting to step up to the bat and really be manning news, posts, interchanges, for the group....:-)      who knows we might become a NorCal group, and force to be reckoned with!!!! (lol),,,,this IS a long state! I figure that groups will arise within "travel boundries"  . Cheers!

Thanks Will for friend Vite!   .rare for me to get out honestly, I could not miss this gathering, it's just too close to home---so many eventsI see  happening, but most are in other places! ! lol...look forward to meeting you there! I'd be happy to let a few songs rip,...I'm a closet player otherwise,,,,caring for family--no ops to get out much, have to stay close, and guard the fort....lol. 

See you later!

Thanks Will,

We are very excited over the idea of actually being able to talk to someone who has actually made or played a CBG.  Most of our friends think we are crazy when we start talking about making playable instruments from cigar boxes. We live in Manteca, which is not all that far away, though it is not exactly around the corner either.  At any rate, we are anxious to meet other folks with a similar passion.

Thanks,

I am looking forward to the gathering in Roseville

Hi Will:

If  you're a regular strummer at Open Strum at the Strum Shoppe then we have seen each other, at least. I won't be making this next Friday as I am in San Diego all month on a work assignment. I would like to meet you and talk CBGs or CBUs. I like the idea of getting a group of like-minded people to learn from each other or just to show and tell. Here's my contact info (email):

bsnell00@gmail.com ("B Snell Zero Zero" at gmail). I'm in Citrus Heights.. from where do you hail? I'll check out your pics and see if I can reconginze you or wifey. Look forward to meeting you officially.

Regards,

Budd S.
