That’s so awesome! Sounds so cool, the resonance is awesome! Love the Charlie Brown theme! My 1st attempt at a CBG was with a NC license plate, yours is light years better! This might be my fav of all of your CBGs!
What better group to play a song by on a lpg than the CARS!! I too will admit when I built mine I didn’t take into consideration where the bridge would fall and had to really get creative in order for it to play correctly. Hindsight... as they say. Great vid as always dude 👍🏻
They should call you jukebox. I don't think I've heard you play the same song twice. That pickup sounds great. I bought one from CB Gitty.( forgot to use your link, sorry next time)
Both Vince Guaraldi and The Cars, SWEET! Loved it! Challenge; can you make a combination license plate/rectangular oil can resonator guitar and video document it and play it for us?
Your awesome Dell. Exactly what I am preparing to do. Love the little pickup in the 0. Your videos have the detail I like to see. Thanks for your thoughts and ideas on building these little guitars. I built a CBG for my grandson(11yr old) the other day for his birthday and he is just awe struck. Loving it and enjoying the journey to learn to play it.
...Del, you did a hell of a job figuring out the dimensions of that plate to get the pup and bridge to fit so perfectly. Love this guitar, a Great, actually better than great sound...Thank you.
Great build Del! Seriously one of my favorite videos of yours! I have a stack of WI plates in the garage.....feeling inspired. Looks like a great Christmas break project. Thanks for sharing!
That sounds absolutely amazing! LPG has been on my list for a while. I saved the plate from my big black Olds that I had named the Mojomobile for just this purpose. Also have an oilcan I've been saving: a one gallon olive oil can.
Awesome work figuring the scale length to make it work with the pickup and bridge. I never gave that a thought when I built one. I will next time! Nice job!👍😎🎸🎶
Whooo, hoooooo! Now that looks FUN. Funny how the “:builds” manage to get you to do what they want. Now I am wanting to do a resonator. Just not sure how to build the resonator....or purchase one. This gives me some ideas. Blessings.......
Amazing effort as usual Del, I still have your email and kind words from February this year about my effort making a LPG over here in Western Australia. Regards, Wayne.
I have a license plate with its number 812 CBG. I have never built a CBG and was wondering if I it would be ok to move the pickup and bridge towards the 812 and cut out the “C” for the pickup vs having to destroy the “B” for placing the pickup.
Re multiple box attempts - yeah, I've been there. Skew, wood too thick for pot shafts, and the absolute prize: the notch for the neck off-centre. I use much lighter wood than you, though - around 10 mm (about 2/5 in), and getting the corners square is a pain.
When you 1st play the guitar what tune is the strings in? I like the shamisen (Traditional Japanese style banjo/guitar)sound it makes. So cool! I hope to get an answer! Thank you everyone!!:
