We’ll travel the 4 corners of the earth to talk to builders and players, influencers, and innovators, we’ll stop along the way to enjoy some music and together we’ll draw closer as a community and be more informed as we spread the word!
Suitcase Sessions
SSE21 Karl-Heinz Lau
In this episode, I had an opportunity to sit down with Karl-Heinz Lau. Karl lives in Alma, Michigan and has one of the most artistic and creative minds in the CBG builders community that I've come across. Operating under the Pigasus label, Karl prefers to build six-string guitars that are exacting in their specs but each a work of art. His work can be found via his Facebook page and he is a member of multiple Cigar Box Guitar builder and player groups. There you can also find him playing those instruments as he performs covers spanning a wide variety of artists and musical genres.
