3 String Guitar tutorials to help other 3SG/CBG lovers! I’m hopeless at explaining strumming patterns so if it’s not on the tutorial then I’m pretty much just going with it and I encourage you to do the same. I’m not a guitar teacher but when I come across songs that I think sound good on the 3 string I feel like I want to share it with others as I have been blessed by others putting up tutorials on many instruments (and other stuff too), so it’s good to be able to give back. If you get something out of the tutorials don’t forget to leave a thumbs up as it is an encouragement to do more and if you dig the channel don’t forget to subscribe! Be good and Hoo Roo...

Fantastic! Great lesson. I was able to learn all the parts quickly and have enjoyed playing the tune for the pat few days. Thanks for picking a great song to do a lesson. Cheers
It’s a catchy tune, that’s for sure. Glad your enjoying it and I appreciate the comment 👍
I see what you there… The Bands name 😉😂 Great lesson!
Appreciate the feedback! Glad you got something out of it and that you got the gag 😜
Amazing Video, really helpful!
Glad you enjoyed it Mantis! 👍
"The Band"
Hi Keith. Yeah the bands name, that’s what I’m after.
Robbie Robertson on guitar
Hi Martin. Who did Robbie Robertson play guitar for?
@thecigarboxguitarguy782 😂 as keith said "the band" Robbie wrote the song
The Band! That’s what I’m after… the bands name! 🤣🤣🤣 Just having a joke. I just thought it was funny that they called themselves The Band. Do you know how they came up with that. I reckon they are pretty underrated.
I have another request of you pretty please with sugar on top?......could you teach us Willy Nelsons' "Blue eyes crying in the rain" ? I can sing it, but I'd sure like to accompany myself.
I had a quick listen. It has a lot of runs in the key of E , which is the low string on a normal guitar which would make the runs tricky on the 3 string. I’ll have a look and see if I can come up with something. Take care and keep strumming! 👍
One of my all time Pearl Jam favs song. Great job!
Excellent tutorial! Thanks for breaking down the intro, it is quite a challenge 😅
Appreciate the comment, it took quite a while to learn. Still not perfect but it doesn’t have to be 🤪👍
You did it! Great job. Thanks very much for doing the tune. I'll get started on learning it right away. Have a happy holiday and New Year. Look forward to your next video whenever you decide on what it will be. Cheers
Thanks Adam. Merry Christmas to you too!
Wouldn’t let their fans attend concerts without a 💉So anti establishment 🤡 Great tutorial though 👍
Yeah, that’s what I was referring too 🤦♂️Thanks for the comment 👍
hello, can you send me the tablature of this blues song, thank you very much.
I can’t believe I didn’t post tabs. I never used to put tabs up as I don’t understand the legalities behind it but I wrote that myself. I might have to repost it with the tabs. If I can find what I wrote down I’ll let you know 👍
ah ok, thank you, I'm new to GCB, I found this nice piece for beginners, it would be good if I could have it, and thank you for your answers 👍
👍
thanks so much for the excellent version and easy to follow teaching, great tune to learn on the cigar box.
Thanks Tony, glad you liked it and appreciate the comment! 👍
How does UA-cam read your mind? I was just thinking this would be a good song to learn on CBG and this pops up a few days later. Good job arranging this.
Glad you got something out of it! Appreciate the comment 👍
Fantastic job! Thanks so much!
You're very welcome! Thanks for the comment 👍
GG!
Thanks Big D 👍
What a great job you did it! Such a beautiful tune. Thank you so much for sharing :D
Glad you liked it 😃
You've done a fantastic job on this! Great tutorial, I'm able to easily understand your instruction. Thanks for doing this classic!
Thanks Adam! I didn’t know the song until it was suggested but I’ve come to really enjoy it. 👍
I've been living with this for 3 days now and its stuck in my head. Happy to report that I've got all the parts down and playing it just as you've shown. Really enjoyed learning this one. I like all the parts to it. Many thanks again!
That’s good news. Let me know if you have a request and I’ll see what I can do 👍
A song request I have is "Life By the Drop" by Stevie Ray Vaughan. I know this may be a big ask, and if it doesn't make sense to do it, I can offer you another choice later. Thanks for taking my request. Haoppy holidays from California.
👀 quite the ask! Just had a listen, great song. Don’t know why I’ve never heard it before but I’ll give it a shot (a cold shot 😆)
I've always heard Sleepwalk played on slide or lap steel guitar, and I've played it on a 3-string with slide... but never heard anyone play it without a slide. You did it really well, and it's a complicated tune. Thank you.
Thanks Tommy. It may have helped that I didn’t know the song and found a simple version on guitar which I transposed to CBG. Glad you enjoyed it 👍
Nice work !
Thanks Don! 👍
Great tuition as always, looking forward to trying this ♥
Thanks Steve, hope you are able to learn it quickly. I did say that I mute after playing each chord but you can just play the chord too if that makes it easier 👍
hey ho ! let's go!!!!!
🤣🤣🤣
Really beautiful, man! Could I suggest for you to cover "sleepwalk" or "when a man loves a woman"? You're pretty good!
Thanks again, I appreciate it. Truth is I’m pretty avg but I do enjoy it. I’ll definitely have a look at those songs for you! 👍
I ended up doing Sleepwalk. I hope you enjoy it 👍
@@thecigarboxguitarguy782 I've just watched it. So beautiful. Thank you so much!
This is as a smooth as it can get. Beautiful, man. Thanks for sharing
Thanks for the comment! It was a little original that I came up with. Glad you enjoyed it 👍
Great lesson!
Thanks man! Keep strumming 👍
@@thecigarboxguitarguy782 Getting it!
Great lessons 💪 please make the solo lesson 🙂
Thanks for the comment. I must get around to it! I’ve been pretty slack (lacking motivation 😒)
Thanks! Great lesson
Thanks for the comment! 👍
Nice find cheers .
Cheers Crosshatch!
@@thecigarboxguitarguy782 can I ask you what thickness you kneck on youre cbg is ,Thnks
@Crosshatch1212 To be honest I couldn’t tell ya. I usually use a medium gauge but don’t pay that much attention. Very unprofessional I know but I only play for fun 🤩. I only started the channel because I couldn’t find many tutorials then the algorithm kicked in and others started so I tend not to put too many out now.
@thecigarboxguitarguy782 thnks ,I suppose it's what's comfortable for youre hand , I'm on no 3 build now .frst one was wild .but I was a painter and decorator closest I'd been to shaping wood was sanding flat wood ,lol cheers
hi, thank you for making tutorials just for this guitar! i can’t read sheet music at all :(
I can’t really read music either 😆 Thanks for the comment 👍
So awesome! Thank you!
You’re most welcome 👍
@@thecigarboxguitarguy782what strings do you have on here? Mine sound high and tinny
@OakAthainNerin I just used medium gauge, couldn’t tell you exactly. Just an A string tuned down to a G and then the normal D & G strings for an electric guitar. Hope that helps 🎸
@@thecigarboxguitarguy782 perfect thank you.
I love this Thanks for making this
No worries, thanks for the feedback! 🎸
Thanks man!
You’re most welcome 👍
Good job, thanks man
Thanks for the comment, glad you liked it! 👍
Perfect lesson, just like your others.
Thanks cracker, I appreciate it 👍 Let me know if you have a request and I’ll see what I can do.
Are the strings tuned to cbg or gdg new to this.
GDg. I write it in the text at the start of the lesson to try and keep my talking to a minimum 👍
How are u getting that like feedback effect is that just loads of distortion?
I’d be using the brown channel on my amp with a bit of gain 😎
Are you using a fixed or floating bridge
Hi Matt, I didn’t build the CBG (I don’t have the skills you have) but it isn’t glued down, it’s held down by the pressure of the strings. If that makes it a floating bridge, then yes it has 😂
Wow your guitar sounds amazing
Thank you for the video. I'm just starting with the CBG, and these are the types of videos I'm looking for!
Glad you’re enjoying the channel! Have you played other instruments before? I appreciate the comment 👍
@@thecigarboxguitarguy782 You're welcome. I started electric guitar back in the 70s in high school, but never had formal training, just a friend that could play. My wife is a drummer, and we just set up a music room in the house. So, I have an electric guitar, two CBG's, and a keyboard. I want to be able to jam with her, as we have not played together yet. She has that experience, but I don't, so I want to pick up what I can get started with, then keep working on it.
@marcd1981 That would be cool. If there’s a song you know on the 6 string that you’d like to play on the CBG I’ll see if I can do a lesson on it 👍
thanks from sweden👍
No worries 🇸🇪 🇦🇺👍
Love this timeless classic ! Would there be any chance to pop a Qik tutorial up for the solo !! Please, please, please! 🙏
I definitely will. Hopefully not to far away 👍
@@thecigarboxguitarguy782 your a legend !! Can’t wait for that one !
Let me know if you have a request and I’ll see what I can do 👍
This is the second of your videos I just watched, got me to subscribe with this one. I've seen several great song choices at your video page, will definitely be checking them out. Thank you!
No worries, thanks for subscribing! 👍
Nice. Very pretty.
So glad you're back doing this! You are one of the top 3 CBG tutorial channels out there and we missed you!
Thanks Johnathon, nice of you to say. Let me know if you have a request and I’ll see if can pull it off. 👍
wonderful, always worth the wait, thanks mate.
Thanks Steve, let me know if you have a request and I’ll see what I can do 👍
Thanks for providing the tabs. I'm not very good at picking things up from just the video. I need both, so this really helps. Thanks. Nice playing!
No worries. I do get concerned about breaking copyright laws so I’m reluctant to put them up but I do see others do it. I’m not receiving or asking for any money so I think I’m ok, I’m sure UA-cam will let me know if it’s a problem. Glad you enjoyed the lesson 👍
The actual date is a little confusing, but it's something like 1925. It may have even been public domain back in the day. The writeup in wiki is confusing. I think you are OK with this one. :--) thanks
I'm also playing with a Camacho CBG. Doesn't resonate much but with the humbucker installed it's sweet sounding! Thanks for the video.
No worries, glad you got something out of it. Thanks for commenting 👍
simple, hypnotic, and perfect. Thanks for posting!
No worries, glad you enjoyed it. Thank for your kind words 👍
We need to see the guitar man!
🤣
Thank you.
You're welcome Keith!
Very nice song and explanation. Late congrats on your team winning!
I’m still basking in the glory 🤣
poped back to see if you had started putting tabs up yet to help beginners, but no so back to busker909 and crazy possum
Don’t forget Mark Lebone!
yes mark is good, it might just be me, i had a bad stroke, need the tabs to go over and over, i learn slow.@@thecigarboxguitarguy782
