    You inspired me to make 3 string CBGs during lockdown, so thank you for that Del. Recently a friend asked me to make a 4 string for him to write with. I had never made a 4 string before. A couple of months later he asked me to make an 8 string (4 x 2). Tuned in C standard, boy it sounds good. Again, many thanks.

      @@PuckettCigarBoxGuitar Yeah, the tricky parts were the string spacings at the nut and bridge and the string sizes. Oh and btw, the scale length is only 21" on a 21mm thick QLD Maple neck, repurposed from old furniture, so it is quite strong. HappyDayZ.

    I love how the variability of these guitars inspire different types of music. Great build.

    6:03 … that’s what Bon Scott said 😉😆😆😆
    7:50 … that’s why I make all my necks able to slide into a closed box (the pickups are always attached to the lid), that and I also like the look of the fretboard overlapping the lid a bit…
    18:45 … nice! I’m hearing a little Jimmy Page now and then with them ringin’ chords…
    Love your builds and watching the “how-I-do-it-all” !!!

    4 Strings is a good step up from the 3 strings so now 3 strings is 1 string too few. But we need to plug that gap between the 4 & 6 string CBG w/ a 5 string CBG in Open C (basically an Alto version of the Keith Richards 5 string Open G Tuning).

      @@PuckettCigarBoxGuitar So after the 5 string CBG in Open C Alto Tuning (basically an Alto Keith Richards Guitar), we can go onto the 6 String CBG in B Flat (it's tuned DGCFAD) which can cover B Flat Trumpet & Clarinet Music.

    Great stuff Mr Puckett If the lid sits even with the box how does a neck back angle cut make sense ?? I can’t wrap by head around the fact that the lid sits even …or does it not with a back angle notch? Please thank you …

    Hey Bro it looks good. How about making me a three string with everything you’re showing. Let me know $$$. We can work with that while building. Have Merry CHRISTmas and a Hppy New Year. Praying 2024 will be great for the Puckett Family. ✝️🙏☮️☮️☃️🇺🇸🇺🇸
