I have been impressed with these 3-stringers. I checked out Dulcimers, Balalaikas, Domras and then these 3-string cigar box instruments. I have had a real nice cigar box around for years now. Perhaps I'll give it a try. Click the entry title to get to the Three String Guitars ~ Primal Americana BLOG.
I wanted to create this blog as a place where I can store and retrieve information for future reference. I chose the name Humble Uker Ramblings because I have started out strumming my father's 1950's painted Harmony ukulele. I think that the greatest appeal of the ukulele as "the people's instrument" is it's humble simplicity. My contact email is HumbleUker@gmail.com. I have also been working on a blog for the Baritone Ukulele called Humble Baritonics.

Maybe we 4-stringers should start looking over our shoulders at the 3-stringers creeping up behind us, the way 6-stringers have to be wary of us.
ReplyDeleteDug a little deeper into the site's videos, & discovered Marcy Marxer demonstrating a prototype cello banjo. Not at all sure I like the sound, although I did like the sound of her 6-string electric cigar box guitar on a different video.
