I’ve been learning to play I’ll Fly Away with basically a one finger melody and a couple of cords. Complete with slide. My first 3 string song! GDG. I play some uke so it’s not completely new. Great simple lesson for us newbies.
I agree completely with @timoflynn2531, in all the tries of my life I’ve never had the success of one evening after watching Del’s videos. God bless you sir! However, I can rarely see your strumming hand and my ear is not yet advanced enough to figure out what you’re doing there. But I have hope now that I will. Some day, I will.
I've just got my first cigar box guitar and looked at dozens of video lessons. Del, you are the first that has enabled me to make a half way decent sound. Absolutely superb lesson! Thank you so much.
I just had a little time wether working at an Ace Had or in my wood shop ! Sorry this video was fantastic, just fantastic ! It was simple to understand and informative. Thank you!
Del, you hit on the intro to Jason Mraz' I'm Yours. I play it on a ukulele but now I'm plucking around on a three string to play it. Thanks for putting that two notes into my head!
WOW now if I lose all but one finger in a tragic garborator accident I will still be able to play! No excuse now for not reaching in there for that lost spoon. Thanks
If barre chords are proving troublesome, you can try pushing down with the side of your index finger instead of the pad, less likely to get dead strings. Otherwise, just practice! It'll get there as your hand develops the muscles and the muscle memory it needs.
@@PuckettCigarBoxGuitar Thanks, I'm learning a lot from you. Next question, are you using reverb on you amp? I'm using a Fender Champion 600 that doesn't have reverb. What would you recommend for an amp to get good sound?
Too right! Played along with my CBG tuned to EBE, and Del needs to get his trusty Tuner out and have another go with his EBE tuning again...LOL...! The good news; I still have my other 3 fingers! on my left hand...LOL! Take care all!
Del Puckett, how do you know someone is a real fan? We sit through the entire Comedy Central add (endorsement) of K. Harris so that you can get all the add revenue possible. :-)

Wow! You are amazing Mr. Puckett. What an awesome lesson. Thank you.

Wow Del, you are the first person to show me that finger. It's usually a different finger!
The beauty of a 3 string CBG and the majesty of music in it's essence right here...top drawer Del.
One of my favorites 😎
Sounds beautiful indeed, love how it rings out.
no doubt you are a great builder of CBG, but you are also a very good professor ! we want more vids like this ! please :)
Wonderful lesson as my life as a carpenter has left me with pretty much just 1 usable finger on my left hand.
I just had a little time wether working at an Ace Had or in my wood shop ! Sorry this video was fantastic, just fantastic ! It was simple to understand and informative. Thank you!

Is that a solid wood cigar box from Cuba or is it cardboard?I would like to get a wood one.Thanks for your video sir.
Very useful
Hey... Thanks Del
Possible for GDG? This sounds really top!
Del my Brother you are an amazing Friend. Please keep me up on the Bible Box and any idea about the clear box you Made last week.
I didn't know you could use a 6 string pickup with a 3 string. Shows you how little I know, lol
That's what she said.
Very good video. My CBG is open tuned GDg. How would your techniques here be played in open G tuning?

@@PuckettCigarBoxGuitar Thanks, I'm learning a lot from you. Next question, are you using reverb on you amp? I'm using a Fender Champion 600 that doesn't have reverb. What would you recommend for an amp to get good sound?
