    Description

    This is a 3 string Cigar box guitar.Cigar box guitars have been around for over a century.If you like the blues you have to play a cigar box guitar.Play one of these and you will be taken back in time.But now you can plug it in and get some powerful sounds.Play it clean or add some distortion and get some delta blues growl.
    I am not just a builder,I am also a player.I have been a playing and performing guitarist for over 30 years.
    My guitars are showcased on the website slideguitarist and have been played and recorded by David Philips.Check out his album(The Rooftop Recordings) with a couple songs recorded with one of my CBGs.Great Musician.
    One of my guitars was also selected to represent Cigar Box Guitars on the website - Atlas of Plucked Instruments - in Holland.
    Here is a video of David in action Playing a CBG I sold him.

    (
    I am playing through a small practice amp.
    If you are shopping for a CBG,Shouldn't you get the chance to hear it?
    That is why I have a video demo of every single CBG that I build.
    Don't take a chance on a CBG without getting to see a video of the guitar you are going to buy.
    It takes time to make videos for every guitar but It is worth it to show you what the guitar looks and sounds like.
