    W00t!!!!

  • Whoa! that was wicked, I would love to own one.

  • o hey lai i want this it's sweet

  • I know!

  • I can't get over how cool that is, you make it sound good and it looks awesome. Do you happen to know what kind of wood the neck is made of? Is it all one piece that runs through the cigar box and out the end? Is there a fret board, or is it all one piece with the neck? What's the width across the fret side of the neck... the whole thing looks like a 1"X2". Is the bottom side of the neck rounded or kept squared? Hope you don't mind all the questions, I'm trying to build one of these myself

  • this is the most amazing thing i have ever seen, you are my hero, be proud, you are a beast!!!!

  • What is the fret scale on that wicked CBG?

  • Its 25 inch, or sometimes I make them 24 and a half so I dont have to have the tension so hard and used for fret style.

  • awesome

  • dig the shirt dude!

  • WOW !!!

  • *moment of silence* All our best, Shane.

  • That's completely awesome.....!
