jeesh im not sure Jason. I know Pinecone is friends with Richard's brother in law Jake Lear. We'll have to ask him...but i don't think a cigar box player has ever entered before.

Hi Paul, Pinecone has won every competition and will be going to L.A for the Grand Finals. We are all very excited here and are hoping this will bring even more attention to Pinecone, Hobo King Guitars and all the other cigar box guitar players in the country. There is more information here http://gc.guitarcenter.com/kingoftheblues/

Can you imagine if a cbg player won this thing?! What a great day that would be. =)

I'm surprised GC would let you through that far. Seems like you might convince somebody to go make their own instead...
Great job though!

Totally cool! How'd you place in the finals?

The "Hobo King Standard" is modeled after Pinecone's own CBG. go to www.hoboking.com to see it. I'm not sure if we're allowed to shamelessly advertise in the comments section like this. If not feel free to remove Mr. Moderator. Thanks for watching everyone.
