If you enjoy three string guitars, this is the place!

Hi Folks, This is the group to share everything about the three string guitar.

 If you have had problems in the past playing regular guitar, try playing a three string guitar, they are much easier and the have a vintage sound that is super unique and easy to capture that old school blues sound.

 There is another website on the net that has a lot more 3 string guitar information. Here is the link to the website  3-string-guitar.com

That guitarist doing a solo on a 3-string CBG sounds very clever. Yeah, he sure is a bright spark ! :-)
