Thanks much A.D.! The Slingers are trying to get the word out about cigar box guitars and this has been our biggest opportunity to date. It’s fun to give away CBGs, especially when they don’t see it coming! I figured a medley would really show off what’s possible on a CBG .

Thanks for watching Uncle John and Brian! The whole medley was 17 songs in about 16 minutes. We had everyone singing along (passing out copies of the words helped!) and SRO in the Underground. I did not see that coming! It was a groovy time.

Good old Woody Guthrie.

Thanks for watching the whole video Kale! I was fortunate that my neighbor and his wife came out to watch the group (didn’t know they were coming) and captured the second half of our performance on his phone. It was a fun day for the Slingers! I hope we can draw in some new CBG enthusiasts as a result.

Brilliant! I love that you taught 3 people to play a song in less than 2 minutes. Amazing. This is what CBN is all about. Expose ordinary people to the magic of a CBG.
