Had a great day at the Boxstock day in Birmingham recently its a fantastic instrument to get into and very addictive hobby and John is just a such a good player try it you'll love it I have made a few now.
Charlie mojo here in ky. You and red dog guitar's got me started building and I can say it changed the way I see music now. The first one I ever heard I listened to it at least 50 times. Just wanted to say you da man. One day I'll have one of your guitars and maybe you one of mine. God bless.
Really nicely put together video. The wardrobe department outdid itself. Sorry couldn't help that John.
love the cigar box with all the bluesman on it..looks very cool John:)
Top shelf my man, not long enough by far.
As always great playing and information about CBG. You are the man when it comes to CBG. I here you almost completed your instructional video on playing the 3 string CBG. Can't wait.
Nice 1 John,glad you better, lookin forward to it mate!!!!
What a brilliant film John,I really enjoyed that mate,the playing on the film and sound is amazing its sounds really acoustic and yet so ballsy at the same time,I hope this film brings you the fame you so deserve John,and interview really honest,good on y oh GodFather!!:-)
Nice one John great film, lots of relevant info, concise and to the point, good playing, well done!
P.s cannot wait for the DVD John the playing and sound on that first cbg with bob Harrison pickup sounds bloody marvellous,soooo slick!!!!
What a great video!
Great video about the godfather of cigar box guitars. less one forget CBJ is a great player as well as a builder. Nice!
Thank God For Cigars and smokeing Right
Enjoyed that!! I thought, blimey it's 13 mins long, but those minutes flew by : -) Is that a Bob Harrison pick up on the CBG you're playing about 3 mins in?
Yeah
@TEXMEXY We'd hoped to start some trial shooting last week..but I've been off with a really bad cold which laid me low for a few days..back in the saddle now.
Just stumbled across your videos John awsome absolute awsome I really loved the cigar box at the beginning of the video. With blind willie Johnson and other pre war blues slide players. Where abouts are you located would love to come down see your shop do you do lessons aswell. Cheers andy
Charlie mojo here. I would love to hear the whole song trouble in mind beautiful sound
That trouble in mind sounds shit hot mate and lovely singing too,brilliant!!!
o.k. cheers john
When you discover such brilliant stuff by watching Planet+ / Regal Pawn. :D !
I'm in the UK, West Midlands.
John thanks for sharing. I just got my first CBG and am totally engulfed in it. When you played trouble in mind, What tuning were you in? Thank You again
help me out here please john..im now on my 4th build..i use 15mm string spacing and have a closed humbucker 35mm in width..whould it work mounted horazontally rather than vertical???
+Jon Trownson It's not a good idea as it's very likely only one string will be anywhere being near over the polepieces, so it may be very unbalanced string to string (ie some loud, some quiet). It may work of you want to risk i, but if it were me, I'd mount it conventionally.
Hi John .
Can i use this on my radio station .
Sure thing.
Sounded like a bit of little red rooster in there john :)
@sserddab So right, I love this fella, although I wish he would find the time to answer my email, I am keen on gettting hold of one of his guitars
you are one of my idles..very different styles but I love the sound they make..check out my first song I posted on youtube melodeeman cbg.
please tell me what you think..i,m trying.:)
