Demoing a 4 string CBG cigar box guitar played fully acoustic. Built and played by Taffy Evans.I never played 4 string before but worked out this piece for the demo. This was built a couple of years ago but as there is little info on playing the 4 string it has not sold as quick as others. Enjoy...I hope.

That really sings Taffy! Beautiful guitar and tone. Excellent playing. I like making and playing 4 strings too. They are more intuitive to me than 3's. I tell people to check out baritone ukulele chord and Dr Ukes site for bari songs that work well for 4 string cbg's in DGBe tuning and banjo chords for DF#Ad.
Looks and sounding good, and your playing too. Cool tune. There are quite a few different tunings that could be used for 4 strings Gitty is working on them right now.

Thanks Derek, I stopped building 4 stringers because I could not demonstrate them good enough.
I have built full size baritone ukes,can't ply them either, but I was amazed at what others do on them, from jazz to classicle.

Hi every one, well thanks for the comments. Keith, now that you mention it I do not know what this is tuned to, ill have to check it out.
The tune normally accompanies a song I wrote some years ago, I left out the words this time.
Shane's new post on 4 stringers look interesting, I may try some blues neck time.

Wonderful play Taffy. Bright sound.
Sounds great. Looks nice too.
Lovely looking and sounding build Taffy, as well as being very well played, very impressed with the Sound Hole design, they look great! :-)
Beautiful guitar and playing Taffy. Thanks for sharing.
I like the four strings myself! Careful, the wonderful way your playing.....you’ll be addicted in no time! Great video and I love that guitar Taffy!
