Welcome to BellyJelly Music™:
Your DIY guitar experience starts here. If you like original music, hand made guitars, or have the desire to make something musically interesting on your own, you've come to the right place. Here you will find photos of my latest guitars, the CD's and DVD's that feature them, and some Freeware applications that I wrote. Thanks for stopping by!

My mission as a guitarist here is to guide and help you get and acheive what you want simply and at a minimum cost. I encourage you to be resourceful, use what you have, to shop around, make substitutions, and explore your options. You really can do anything when you put your mind to it.

 

The Cigar Box Guitar Emporium is now open on eBay. This is where I will post bargain priced guitar parts for cigar box guitars, guitars of my own, and anything else of useful. Suggest stuff that you would like to see there too.
