Ha Ha, Yep! the Special Large for Medium price still applies, and I did actually build and post a Git from a Pizza Paddle/Tray, on July 13 2015, AGP #187, I'd post another pic of it here, but of course that's not possible, besides it would only make you more hungrier for Pizza :-D
"Thanks UJ", marvellous what a bit of Stain and Clear Gloss can do to a bit of shitty old pine, still have some of the same recycled 45mm x 240mm solid pine left in the shed, it is covered in white paint, but comes of pretty easily with my portable hand belt sander fitted with some very course grade sandpaper, and there's nothing wrong with eating Pizza for Breakfast, I do it all the time with what's left from the night before's Tea :-)
Man, that stained pine looks fantastic. A very pretty guitar, but I think it would cause me weight gain. It makes me hungry for pizza. It is 705 AM and I want some pizza RIGHT NOW!

Very cool build AGP.
Looks great & you can beat a prowler half to death with ‘er too :)
Now I get it. That pretty guitar is in the shape of a pizza oven paddle. Do you still have that Large for a medium price thing going on?
Nice! I really like the simplicity of this and the stain makes that pine look great.
Uncle John, you really crack me up!
