Listen "SSE12 Roberto Vasquez"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode, I sit down with Roberto Vasquez. If you're paying attention, you'll note the 3-string, paint can lid resonator leaning against the suitcase at a crossroad in my podcast logo. Roberto made that cigar box guitar for me about 7 years ago as a part of a Christmas exchange among a group of builders, and it has been my favorite to noodle around on. Roberto lives in beautiful San Bernardino County, California in Fontana and talks to us about how he found the cigar box guitar and started making, playing and selling them. We wrap up with a great story on an opportunity he had to build a CBG for Cheech Marin of the comedy and movie duo Cheech and Chong! If you want to see more of Roberto's cigar box guitars you can check out his listings on his Etsy site: Etsy/rvmusic.etsy.com FB/RLVCBGWatch the epidsodes on my YouTube channel at: https://www.youtube.com/@BobBowman962/videosCover Art by Alice Saurber: Alice Design Studio - 513-907-9878Cigar Box Guitar Music for Season 1 performed by Russ Wellington and Cody Goggin Cigar Box Guitar Music for Season 2 performed by Dean Dostal
