Thanks for listening. We enjoy reading your comments..
Teddy demonstrating at the DC Rock and Roll swap meet
We made a sale and so Teddy got some bells for his feet from his cut. He now has rythm. All he needs now is cymbals for his knees.
Cigar box nation
It was nice meeting some cigar box nation members at the rock and roll show.
We meet refrigerator Johnny and Norman…We need to have a DC region meet and great or Jam…
Back from the rock and roll swap meet
Whew, finished the 2 Ukuleles’ this morning. Had to install the strings on the way down.
Pictures of Teddy playing at our table. We should have charged $5.00 to stand and listen. Lots of interest and lots of people thinking about building their own. Not a lot of buyers. oh well…
Bridges
No pictures yet, but bridges are made. We used rosewood, slotted them for a bone nut and beveled the edges. They will look good.
Edit: The bridges are made. We slotted the rosewood, machined for thickness and then tapered the edges for a clean look. I still need to take a picture…
Hanging by the neck
here are 5 necks getting finish applied.
Progress on the latest Cigar Box Guitars.
Ok, so far, 4 necks are roughed out and frets cut. Shaping is complete and ready for finish.
