Hey Dr Jones, thanks for the kind words. It's been a busy summer and  I hadn't logged on the site for a while . But I appreciate your message. I checked out  the builds you have made and I know I have a long way to go. The blue maple with the f holes is awesome!

I dont feel qualified to give tips untill I have as many builds as some of the others.I am starting to HEAR   CBGs   I have not yet decided what type of Magic I can extract out of these  very small Ceder boxes ...The sound I go for might not be your favorite colors.... I believe this is an art ....a careful balance of tone.A pickup doesnt make sound,only hears what is available-.  Piezos hear the box.  Mag/coils hear strings...

I liked your vid Good job on C.B.G. I dont know what a piezio pickup would sound like in a A/B type comparison , weaker with more external noise, from my experience with lots of acoustic guitars thu the yrs. I dont believe there is anything like a mag/coil pickup for power, crunch and gain. I believe the p.up I heard [vid] compliments your playing. Thanx

Thanks for the kind words but I have to say I'm very impressed with your craftsmanship and the unique wood work designs. Do you keep most of them or do you sell them as well ?

Thanks. Oh I was wondering what it was. I see you used plexi glass for a nut, I did that on my 3 string worked out good. I ended up building two nuts the first one cut to deep almost too easy to work with

Well folks, my first build was a success. I've had strings on for a few days and its holding tune. found a nasty kind of drop d tuning, sounds sick.'' good'' thanks for the input and watch for me in the future.
