Uncle Ted Crocker has been working furiously to post videos from the Cigar Box Guitar Extravaganza concert on June 9th.  So far, over 20 vids are online for you to view.  Go to his YouTube page and start checking them out:

The great Erick Coleman from Stewart-MacDonald has posted a how-to on CIGAR BOX GUITAR PICKUPS.  Go here and read about it.  Anyone who has heard the vicious tones of Tomi-O and his cigar box guitar will know the power of Erick's pickups...because Tomi-O's main guitar sports a P45 cigar box pickup by Erick.

Hi WFMU...and thanks!

WFMU-FM, the greatest independant "outsider" radio station featured my CBG music on Mita's show along with a really cool blog post on their website this week.  They also made two of my songs available for download.  Go here, read about it and steal my music.  I'm so geeked!

We've finally got the site going.  Hallelujah!  Thanks again, Ivan.

For those who are looking for free plans on HOW TO BUILD A CIGAR BOX GUITAR, we are in the process of reloading them to this site.  In the meantime, you can view and print those plans by visiting the other cigar box guitar site here.
