MMO must work. No stuck strings, no backfiring.

My brother makes 3 string cigar-box guitars but he sure can't do that!
Thanks Mack, that's really neat!

Probably the best version of that song I have ever heard. Who knew MMO could be used on electrical systems?

I build three string cigar box guitars, but I'll never be able to play that good. I started out with the cookie tin build in 2012 and just sort of kept building. The wood box is number 27. Everyone has a different voice and played by a skilled musician, (I have some friends who fit that category) they sound pretty good.
