Posted by AGP # on October 3, 2017 at 5:36pm
AGP #300 - “UJ”(3 String Licence Plate Guitar)Scale : 635mm / 25inchesStrings : .048NW / .032NW / .022NW /Tuning: G / D / g /The Box sides are Douglas Fir stained with Japan Brown, the Box bottom is Aluminium checker plate, the Neck is Grey Ironbark & the Fretboard is Ivy Patterned White Oak, both stained with Old Baltic, as are the Yellow Wood Ash Headstock Wings, the Forest Red Gum Nut and Bridge wood, a 6.5k Tele Type Neck Pickup is hardwired to the Jack.Found the Licence Plate on Ebay while searching for a Harley Davidson Plate, and couldn’t help myself, I thought it would be the perfect way to hit the #300 Build Mark, when I first started my CBG journey some 4 years + ago, the first member to friend me was a guy from “Iowa” called “Uncle John”, and ever since he has been a source of encouragement, constructive criticism, wit, and of course humour, not only for me, but also for countless others, #300 is not the end of the journey, but is the start of the next chapter :-D

    "Thanks" for the kind comments and friend request Marc, Licence Plate CBG's are one of my favourite type of builds  :-)

    Wow that is beautiful work!

    "Thanks Dennis", sounds fine, but I'm in 2 minds at the moment on wether to fit it with lighter gauge strings or not, will post a Vid when I make that decision some time in near future  :-)

    Thanks!  Dave, Dano, Kiga, and 'UJ' I think that number reads 05   :-D

    Good man, Dano.  Kigar I am unfriending you and sending your people a mean letter.   Maybe H.  H is a mean letter.

    I get the rustic, struggling a bit with the classy - talking about UJ of course!  Congrats on 300 builds!  Raising a glass to seeing 300 more.
