Learn The Sanford & Son Theme Song On Your 3-String Cigar Box Guitar

Sanford & Son 3-string cigar box guitar lesson

In this post, you’ll learn how to play the timeless riff in the Sandford & Son theme song from Glenn Watt on your 3-string cigar box guitar.


The video lesson above is for 3-string cigar box guitars tuned G-D-g.

Included in the video is on-screen tablature to help you understand exactly where to put your slide and when.

Note, you don’t have to use a slide to learn this riff. The fret numbers indicated in the on-screen tablature can also be used on fretted cigar box guitars, too.

The slide Glenn uses in this video is the product of Evolution Stoneware Pottery by Janis Wilson Hughes. C. B. Gitty proudly carries Janis’ handcrafted slides and tone bars, all made in the U. S. A.
