Cigar Box Guitars (CBG’s), handmade right here in Key West, Florida, USA, are now on display, for sale, and demo at Island Guitar’s Key West location, right here in the Key Plaza Kmart / Publix Sopping Center in between The UPS Store and ATT&T Cell Phone Store.
Everybody seems to LOVE these unique musical creations, one, two, three, four, and YES even 6 string models available!! These “guitars” are set up LOW for regular play, HIGH for slide playing, or “down-the-middle” – being set good for BOTH slide and regular play NICE RIGHT !!
* The above pictured dimensions were taken from Luna brand ukuleles and can be used as a general rule for identifying purposes, with each brand varying slightly in measurement, but following the same order.
There are four main types of ukuleles: Soprano – Concert (or Alto) – Tenor – Baritone
Soprano: Tuning: gCEA, aDF#B
Concert (or Alto): Tuning: gCEA (re-entrant), GCEA (linear (tune G down an entire Octave))
Tenor: Tuning: gCEA (re-entrant), GCEA (linear) using Low 4th G string, or DGBE (like Baritone)
Baritone:Tuning: DGBE (1st four strings of a guitar)
Bass Uke or sometimes called a UBass is as a regular Bass guitar would be tuned: low to high (4th-1st) EADG
**remember that the 1st string of any guitar or UKULELE is the one furthest from your face while playing ** (the smallest/thinnest string on a GUITAR is the first, and furthest away from your face while playing it)
