How in the world do you create that tone. It’s haunting. True blues.

Sounds like dropped D A D. Nice bluesey sound with the juiced up nylon strings.Cool usage of the abandoned farm house vid. Stay Blue:D

I’ve got a Fender Mustang Mini connected to a 3 String CBG made out of a Rocky Patel CB. I’ve tried everything in the world to try and get that tone. I’m calling BullCrap on this … I think you and Robert Johnson both were at that Crossroads because I can’t for the life of me duplicate that tone. I’ve not even got close and I have a limitless amount of FX, and Amp Models at my fingertips … Keep on doing what you do. I love your CBGs and Music!!! Much Respect.

Use flat toothpicks. They glue down tight and work really well. Nylon strings only, though.
