I am just getting into CBGS and I am curious I see everyone who plays them seems to have a glass or metal cylinder on a middle finger or pinky finger what is it used for exactly?

Hello all this is Daren Larsen, builder of this CBG. Although I'm currently not building, due to a career choice and lack of time. I would just like to say, there are many GREAT CBG builders all over the world. Many of them can be found on cigarboxnation, and a few of them also sell CBG's on eBay. A good CBG is not hard to find, no matter what country you live in.... When comparing other CBG's to this one, remember it has more to do with the musical genius playing it..... greeting from Florida john .... stay well my friend

Robert Stapleton

Great video and excellent playing. I notice there are several questions about who the builder of your CBG is but I don't see a reply. Would you share that info please?

Earl Wheeler

John, I've a friend in French Guyana and is going to Florida in April. He's a R&R/Blues master. His English isn't so good. I introduced him to cbg's after he told me he was interested in a banjo. Now he wants to build or buy one. Would you please let me know where in Florida could get a kit or buy a quality cbg? Very nice playing. The history of cbg is old and the single string made out of a cigar box and a broom. History said they were called "Diddly Bo" Bo Diddly with his square Cody? Subscribed!

Thanks for your replies. I will try your tuning next. I guess as a newbie I still have hard time comprehending the idea that anything is okay. I like the concept of being free and experimenting though. I am a mathematician I am more used to rules. I think this is what appeals to me about the cigar box, that there are no rules. Is that true on all guitar types?

Tom Cooper

I hit Post too fast. I meant to say that I absolutely love your playing.

I'm new to CBG but I have one question. I thought open G was GDGB. But you use GDGD. Could u explain why? Thank you in advance.
