Great singing and playing! Very soulful you have such a smooth voice! Is that cbg plugged in for this or just acoustic? It has a great twangy but still smooth sound to it!
Oh yeah! This sounds so fine!
I keep watching you play over and over. I think I can learn a bit. Thanks for showing clearly just how. Your fingerboard is even worn right where you pick this one.
Thank you all for your comments.
To Franck Scott : on this cbg there is a preamp as you can see in this vid : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KrWljmvl7d4
For a better sound, the pickup is not Under the lid of the box, but Under the bone saddle of the bridge, exactly like a "standard" folk guitar you can buy in a music shop.
For this vid, i played with a Micro Cube Roland, on black panel with some reverb. Guitar preamp settings everything on middle.
Rhialto...that is some awesome playing and singing. I sure like the sound of your CBG. That is the sound I am going to try to achieve on my build. Can you share with me the make up your electronics? The larger box size I am sure helps a lot. Excellent.
nicely done Rialto good picking and singing
Wonderful Rhialto! I love your play and voice. You do the R.L. Burnside style so good. Skip James too. Thanks.
Resonant box, thanx for sharing Rhialto, I like the ol’ timey look too, c’est si bon :)
Sweet video..
Wow! Love your music. So good on both playing and vocals.
