I've made 2 CBUs, one for my brother and one for me (because as I was breaking in the one for my bro I was having too much fun and thought I'd better have one of my own!) ... Both have rod piezos under the saddle positions with an onboard equalizer which in my opinion (via Shane Speal) makes all the difference between "good enough" piezos and "much better" piezos!! Funny story: the original neck for my brother's uke was just a tad narrow, playable but not really fun playable. But, hey, it's just a cigar box uke and it's just for my brother, right?! "Just?" for my brother?! Well, I took the unacceptable neck out, made another the proper width and boy, was it much more fun to play!! And if it's not fun to play what's the point?! Oh, yeah and it being for my brother it had to be done right!! 🤣

Answers a ton of questions. I am building a CBG " Trigger" based on Willie's Nelson's; out of an old very dead classical. Needed to solve the nylon string dilemma. Also nylons would be great for kids guitars due to sensitive tiny fingers. Can't wait to hear it amplified. Thanks again Del.

It is an L-hook or L shaped screw hook used for similar purposes as the normal C shaped hooks like hanging keys or other small, light things. A nice alternative to using a screw in that location as a string retainer. 👍

@PuckettCigarBoxGuitar Could you do a video about songs to play on CBG with very basic chord shapes, like one finger on all 3 strings, one finger on the melody string, 'stacked', and 'staggered' shapes? I have some motor skills issues so I can't do the more complex stuff.

Del, looks like your "0" fret is a bigger fret than the others? I would guess it has to be since grooves are cut in it. Nice build!
