In this episode I speak about a recent FB conversation about relic finished guitars. The feedback regarding relic guitars was definitely not pro-relic. I however love a good relic finish guitar and also love to relic my CBGs. So without using the word relic again here is the episode; To Relic or Not to Relic:)

This episode, I speak with Blake Saban from the band The Urban Chiefs. Blake has been playing a CBG (built by the famed Arthur Moody) for a good few years, as one of his standard stage and recording instruments. Blake and The Urban Chiefs have been relentlessly touring for years and have released a number of fantastic CDs and just recently a live DVD which has to be seen. Having seen these guys live I can attest to their huge stage presence and great songs. 

Contact Blake Saban at www.theurbanchiefs.com to purchase an album or DVD

contact me, Adam Harrison at www.birdwoodguitars.com 

Hope you are enjoying the new episodes.

I also made an insane plank guitar from a discarded chopping board which had been made from a Soviet box timber and still had the writing on it. They are loads of fun.

Big Thanks

Hi CBG fiends. The CBGBuilder is back!! 

We are back to the ideals and vision that made TCBGBP a worldwide success!!!!! OK thats a bit of an exageration but we are still the most CBG focussed podcast on the planet. 

In this episode i got a chance to speak with Elaine Lally from an awesome, homegrown, retro inspired guitar strap company called MYMUMDRIVESAUFO. 

I also yammer on about NOT fixing a broken guitar. 

OH and there is now a YouTube channel dedicated to this podcast called THE CIGAR BOX GUITAR BUILDER

Have fun building.

In this episode Mark and I set out to talk about soldering and all the things that entailed. However we got sidetracked with other topics. As some of you may know I am about to open a bricks and mortar store in Australia that will center around my CBG builds and vintage Japanese guitars. Will it work out? I hope so!! This is a new project that I hope will be of interest and I intend to bring you guys along for the ride. 

Big thanks goes again to Mark for making himself available and to you the listener for supporting the show by subscribing. Please don't forget to like the show on itunes by giving us 5 stars and leaving a comment as this helps us to get noticed.

We are back! After a break from regular broadcasts Mark and I are back to talk about all things guitar related. As usual we will be coming from a home made (hand crafted) perspective and our focus ranges from CBGs to solid body electric guitars. 

On another note we say a sad goodby to Ukulele Ray, one of our previous guests. God bless and rest in piece mate. Our thoughts go out to your friends and family. For those who didn't get the chance to see him perform, have a listen to our interview from last year. 

Best wishes 

Adam and Mark
