Hi, I'm new to all this and thought I'd best introduce myself to all the fellow Brits on here. If you get five check out my page and give me some feedback on  my track. More advice etc the quicker I'll improve. Great site and drop me line.

I am builder of CBGs and Diddley Bows based in Colne, Lancashire in the UK and I have been given the chance to display my builds in a Shop in the Town centre of Colne on Saint Georges Day. i was wondering if anyone out there would be kind enough to give me any information on the history of the Cigar box Guitar and/or Delta Blues as I was thinking of making a 'cork board' display to have as a backdrop to the builds and the short performance that I will be doing on that day.

 

Any help will be greatly appreciated 

Thanks in advance

Drew

hey folks I'm sure most of you probably already know but thier is talk of a UK registry of CBG players and builders I'm not here to take anything away from this fine page and site i'm just saying if you did'nt know about find out and if you know about it spread the word something like this can only bennifit the UK group allowing us to grow as a collective souls enriching what we already have
