Custom 1956 Texas Farm Truck Six String LPG for my bother from another mother Keith Alan down south in the Great Lone Star State. 1956 Texas plate, 22 3/4" scale (Keith played Justin Johnson's "Maddog" 1960 Nebraska Beef State short scale LPG on JJ's visit to Houston and liked it), barnwood body, chrome covered humbucker pickup w/gold bucker ring, gold adjustable bridge, gold skull volume knob, gold skull enclosed gear tuners, maple neck, gold strap buttons.Keith sent me this plate a few years back and told me to do whatever I wanted with it, I held it back hoping someday he might want a build done with it. Glad I did! It was an honor to build a git for somebody I have always looked up to as a builder/player/mentor and more importantly a Good Friend!I'll be hand delivering this to Keith down in Houston in a couple weeks at which time I will pick up the Beautiful 3 string big body Reso he built for me, cant' wait! I'm like a kid at X-mas!!!
