Classic Roots Blues on Homemade Resonator Guitar

There is something about the voice and soul of an acoustic, homemade guitar that feels like a musical time machine for me. This small cigar box guitar, with a hand-hammered tin can for a resonator was built by “Homegrown Strings.“ It was one of the first cigar box guitars I ever played, and I’ve recorded with it more than just about any other guitar. The tone sits somewhere between a banjo and resonator, and it’s strung up with the highest 4 strings (D-G-B-E) from a 6-string pack.
