Ten Ways to Improve Your Cigar Box Guitar Playing

[@terrylarson8968]

I'm a newbie to sbgs , but no better than I am, I love it ! This is the first time I've seen you. Thank you so much for the good advice. I'm looking forward to seeing more of your videos. Thanks again sir.

Thank you. Playing CBG is fun and very addicting.

My first video of yours I've watched and let me tell you, cant wait to see more!

[@nathanjroberts1]

Thank you so very much.

Thanks Nathan. I am trying to learn to play the mandolin and all of these tips apply to that as well.

Have fun is the best advice I ever got, starting on the bass a decade ago, thru 6 string and lap and now the CBG. It's rare advice on TH-cam and the teachers are missing the boat. Love my Tejas you recommended BTW, just got to lower action a bit but it's damn fun coming from a frettless CBG.

They are great sounding guitars. Let’s keep having fun. 😎

What a great jovial fellow he's a regular rip snorter. Seems like a guy you should take the advice from

I like playing in D on a cbg tuned to Gdg. It's all right there at the 2nd fret.

Very cool.

You was apt to catch Eddie Van Halen in a Broadway show just to listen to the sound in the show he was a master at finding new sounds

👍

[@rickeydenler4272]

Play they used to catch

9:30 … I’d say learn to play a song as close as you want not so much perfectly but in your own voice your own interpretation…guitarists in concert don’t always play note for note from the studio album…

[@nathanjroberts1]

Agreed, as I was playing last night in Claremore, OK I definitely didn't play the same notes as on the recording. 😂
