July 4th W.E. 2010
The cigar box guitar took center stage this year as well as a variety of blues slide on acoustic and electric.
Jerry Zybach was superb in his performances and even gave an intimate workshop on his cigar box.

http://www.karagrainger.com/Every stage was filled with so much energy by all the musicians, can't list them all but here's a link

Thanks so much for stopping by and for your swell comments.
Yes, the tuners i used are neat.... but impractical.
It's a real job getting the thing tuned. For the next one i'll be using some Cello pegs.
You guitar looks fantastic. Nice simple, clean design. I like that.
Hope you're enjoying your summer.
Take care,
Shelley.
