I managed to churn out 1 CBG lesson per month all year long. Here is the 12th lesson this year and I focus on how to sound good on 3-string fretless cigar box guitar (CBG) when you're still a beginner. I hope the video is helpful to someone.

  • Thanks Danny. I always hope these videos are helpful.

  • Awesome lesson

  • Thanks Ambrose. It is a tried and true sound for sure.

  • Nice tutorial Kale.  Sounding good!  Yes, simple and useful formula that draws out the sustainability of the slide actions while knocking out a bluesy vibe..

  • That's the point of this video Doug. It's pretty simple to sound like you know what you're doing with a slide. Thanks for checking it out.

  • I’m not a slide guy, but after watching your video Kale, I could be! Practical and playable, it sounds like you’ve been doing it all your life.

  • Exactly AGP... keep it simple. I think this formula is a great way to do that. 

  • Yep!, totally agree with the use of plenty of Gain, Reverb & Effects etc, I found out very early in my journey about playing CBG's, that it certainly hides a lot of mistakes and inexperience, and of course the other thing about about playing these little 3 string critters, is using the "KISS" principle!

    :-D

  • Thanks John. I figured this was a good one to end the year.

  • This is the lesson I have been WAITING FOR!    Yas, sir.  Reverb.  Man, Kale.  You do sound good.  I have never much liked short slides. You make me want to get one out and try it and some of this.  Cool lesson.    Thanks!
