Glenn Watt and I are launching a new live broadcast tomorrow (Friday, July 14) at 2 PM on the
Cigar Box Nation Facebook page, and it's gonna be a thing!
We're calling it
(for now) the "Gitty Guy Show", and we hope to do one weekly, to talk about what's going on in the world of CBGs, share some how-to info, play some songs and feature some cool stuff.
We'll also be answering questions and responding to YOUR comments during the live show. Hope to see you there!

Nashville session ace test drives 2x4 lap steel kits
See the video in the 2x4 Lap Steel product description!
WOW!!! We knew our 2x4 Lap Steel Kits made fun guitars, but we had no idea how awesome they sounded until we heard a pro take one for a test drive. Nashville session ace, Troy Engle stopped by yesterday morning and put several completed kits through a series of demos, using different tunings and even a volume pedal for pure 'truckstop jukebox' sounds.

SKATE OR DIE! ...or just turn it into a lap steel!
C. B. Gitty customer, John C. just made this righteous skate board lap steel. He says, "[my] son gave me a skateboard with the logo from the tattoo shop he and my daughter work at in Billings, Mt. Always wanted to make a skateboard lap steel but didn't want to hide the graphics. The 2 x 4 Clear Acrylic Fretboard was perfect for this project."
Turn your 2x4 Lap Steel Guitar into a console lap steel with this simple mod using three table legs! The simple tripod setup gives a sturdy foundation at just the right height for you to sit and slide away!
