  • Sound cool
  • Nice!

  • Wicked Sound.!!! Playin' & Singing.!!!

  • I like the video, and listened to Guy's cover of The Boxer too. Very nice.
    We still have snow here, but not so much. The nights are cold, but the sun works all right these days.
    And: #3 is finished and pictures are uploaded.

    The best from Bjorn

  • Hi Bjorn, don't know what the weathers like with you mate but this is the second day of spring here :-305997949?profile=RESIZE_1024x1024Shame you don't live near as your youngest would be ideal for Guy's band as they are looking for a saxophonist!

    What did you think to the "prototype" video? Hope you liked it mate, keep in touch, Chris. :)

  • I'll come back to you. Just now my youngest asks me to help him pick up a new drum set in our neighbourtown,

    he is like your Gavin, hand him any instrument (at least piano, guitars of all sorts, saxophone etc) and he soon knows how to play them.

    Bjorn

  • Hi Bjorn, they both have their own bands but used to play together  before Gavin moved to Spain. Gavin plays any instrument you put in front of him and both played in a brass band at a very young age. This is a picture of Gavin playing the drums305992870?profile=originalIf you look on youtube at the "Soberskin" "Prototype" video which was the last one they did together it may give you an idea of what they were like, let me know what you think mate, Chris. :)

     

  • Hi again Chris. Maybe they can make a duo. Do you play an sing? I play blues harp, but my fingers are too old, worn and stiff for playing chords on stringinstruments, except a bit slide when the instrument is tuned for just sliding. (Total barré).

    The Best to You + everyone you wish the best :)

  • Hi Bjorn, thank you for the kind words, I have two sons also, Guy is the eldest and Gavin is  the youngest, Gavin lives in Madrid with his fiancee Maria and they are coming over at the end of this month so I hope to have Gavin's CGB ready for then and maybe get him to do a video too, all the best mate, Chris. :)

  • Hey Chris, so I see you too make instruments to your son. Very nice and clean guitar (and probably son too) I have two of them (sons) and ukes and regular guitars (many) are their prefererences. But now they tend to convert to the small and powerfull CBG's, the latest (#2) goes to Joakim (21) and #1 is Adrian's (17). I'll try to make them sing and play for the "CBG-nation" .
