New Hampshire High School Hosts Cigar Box Guitar Workshop
We just got this fantastic email from Kathie Dinan about a cigar box guitar workshop in Dover, NH.
Hi Ben,
I just wanted to let you know that my husband and I offered a very rewarding CBG workshop for Winterterm at St Thomas Acquinas HS [in Dover, NH] several weeks ago. Twice as many kids signed up for it requiring the need for two 2 2 1/2 hour sessions for four days.
Since we only charged them 15.00 for the "kit" which I painstakingly assembled myself, I wanted to thank you personally for the school discount you gave me for supplies.
Also several kids were interested in purchasing piezo harnesses. My latest build has one and I love the effect.
We also invited a guest speaker, an STA alum who is a luthier and has an incredibly sophisticated workshop in his home. His name is Daniel St. Pierre and he started out making cigar box guitars!
Sincerely,
Kathie Dinan
