Robert, what was that you put under the bridge?
For the hardtail bridges, I sometimes put an 1/8" piece of wood under them if necessary to get the action right.
Byrd I Love your teaching Videos!!! Keep them coming!!
Thank you!
The Arcana boxes (Mortal Coil, FireWalker, Thunder Smoke) make excellent CBGs. Especially when they are handmade by Robert Byrd's Cigar Box Guitars! Get yo Thunder Smoke gitty!!

Happy New Year!!! Does any of your Luthier tools from Stew Mac?
Happy New Year! Most of my CBG specific tools are from CBGITTY.COM or Amazon.
Great work! I would love to see a detailed video on creating the multi wood necks….please and thank you
Thank you! I'll have to include that process in one of my upcoming videos.
Another sweet instrument! Well done!
Thank you!
Nice work Robert. If you don't mind me asking, where do you find those blue humbuckers? If it's a trade secret, I understand. You've helped me with a couple problems, thanks and keep up the good work!
Thank you! I got those off Amazon. I started with an internet search and ended up there. I tried to paste a link but this app wouldn't let me.
@@robertbyrdsguitars Thanks' Robert, I will go there.
that is one nice gitty, awesome start for 2025
Thank you!
You do amazing work. Gotta ask, your garage heater, could you give me info about that please?
Thank you! It is a mini split. Because I spend so much time out there, I bit the bullet and had one installed.
@robertbyrdsguitars ... Okay... I saw it hanging above your garage doors and couldn't tell what it was. I've never seen one like that. Thanks
Ooh, that is an air filter to help control the saw dust. I do most of my cutting outside but the dust ends back in the garage
Beautiful guitar!! Great start for 2025.
Thank you!

Thank you!
Thank you
Thank you!
Wow, congratulations. That Oliva cigar box guitar is really beautiful! It sounds great too. The thunder smoke is also very cool. Both guitars sound great both acoustic and electric. I was amazed at your guitars.👍
Thank you!
Two awesome builds! Well done!
Thank you!
Well done. You came up with a bunch of clever solutions to tricky problems. It looks rock solid. Gonna go make one.
Thank you! Building them is so rewarding!
Thank you! Yes, building them is so rewarding!
Do you have plans/link for that laser made parts organizer/drawers?
www.etsy.com/listing/1641002429/chest-of-drawers-modular-workstation?ref=share_v4_lx
How did you do the design on the fretboard, looks cool?
I used a laser engraver, filled and sanded. Just had to burn it a little deeper so I could fill it. I wanted it to pop on the light fretboard!
Oh! I have an xtool laser but not sure how to set it for that length, thanks' Robert.
It took some trial and error.
I usually gravitate toward simpler styles. But I'd be lyin' and dyin' if I told you I don't love that 'Thundersmoke!' Imagine showing up at the CBG Festival with that. 😆
😆 thank you! Yeah, I try not to go over the top but this one was on my bench a little longer so I had a lot of time to think about it.
Amazing work! Just wondering why you prefer string through body vs. alternatives?
I just like the look!
2 hot gittys. Get yo self a sho nuff no holds barred Robert Byrd Cigar Box Guitar.
This is for play boom boom boom….great work
Thank you!
you know I know, been carrying the coin for over 40 years , them licks are getting better and better
Awesome! I appreciate it.
sounds good
Thanks!
nice one !!!
Thank you!
That customer's going to be very happy! BTW, I do think CBGs sound best when played bottleneck style, similarly to the way Classical guitars sound best when played fingerstyle.
Thank you!
Get yo self a Robert Byrd License Plate Gitty! Another awesome build.
Thank you!
Looking good so far!
Thank you!
Awesome! Maybe you could color match the paint of the license plate letters/numbers and stencil the number 7 top of the pickup?…
I've thought about that on several builds, trying to continue the graphics and color on to the pickup. My paint and stencil game is not that strong but I'm working on it. 😀
I can't wait to see how this comes out.
Thank you!
That looks to be a cool build!
Thank you!
Nice one...looks and sounds good. Great to see a fretted 2 stringer...🤗🤗
Thank you!
I use a push/pull on my Humbuckers along with the 3 way switch...6 way switching is killer!
Hell yeah!
I ain’t know pro .But I found that on my third build the hard tail bridge I moved back three mill from the front when the bridge was fully wound in .Ive got the whole cast of tuning just by doing that little move back from 25 to 25, plus 3 mm .peace nice work
Awesome! Thank you!
Hi Robert, thank you for this video! I‘m building my first CBG with such a Lace Matchbook pickup. I have some problems with the wiring diagram and I‘m not sure if I made some failures. Is there a possibility to recieve a complete wiring diagram with pots etc.? I can pay you something if you want so. Kind regards!
Send me a message and I can help you out, it's been a while since I put in a lane pickup!

That looks great, and I think it actually sounds way better when not plugged in... very banjo-like.
Thank you! Yes, I like the way it sounds unplugged.
Nice!
Thank you!
