Recent License Plate Guitar Builds

2nd one has a rod piezo bridge, 4th one has a humbucker and disc piezo under the plate. You can hear the 4th one played through my 25 year old hacked tape deck here: https://youtu.be/FLMd6_I7hNY (pretty low-fi, but fun)

    Thank you Jerry! It's been fun experimenting with different plate builds. The Transcend one I got 12 years ago when I moved to Georgia. We just sold that old car a month or so ago, and obviously I didn't want to cut through for a PUP. So it has been interesting to experiment with the humbucker under the plate. It works, but the signal is pretty low. That's why I added a piezo as well. With the 2 it's got a very unique sound compared to all my other CBGs which only have one or the other.
