Members epi56ebony Posted December 13, 2012 Members Share Posted December 13, 2012 That was a crazy looking guitar Paul was playing. Something Billy Gibbons or Bo Diddley would play. It sounded like a slide guitar but he was using his fingers or did he have a slide on, I couldn't tell. If anyone can identify the guitar Paul used I'd really like to know!

If anyone can identify the guitar Paul used I'd really like to know! It was a cigar box resonator guitar. Not sure of the brand. Lots of people make cigar box guitars. Look on Etsy.com or eBay. Here's one guy that makes 'em: http://www.deepcreekstrings.com/2008...-guitar-2.html And another: http://www.etsy.com/shop/hoochbobble?ref=seller_info Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members gtrjones Posted December 14, 2012 Members Share Posted December 14, 2012 also, not technically a guitar. a 4-string, pretty short-scale, probably baritone uke. Who knows how it was tuned, probably some open chord... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I kinda disagree here...a cigar box guitar can be almost anything you want it to be as long as you can tune it properly...my CBG makes a perfect tenor guitar.
