Arkansas Razorback Hogg License Plate Reso

Posted by Maddog on June 24, 2013 at 7:23pm
Brand new Arkansas License Plate, fretted 26 5/8" scale, maple neck/fretboard/heel, walnut fret dots, humbucker pickup w/ dark chrome skull volume knob, black skull tuning knobs, bolt and nut saddle/bridge, machine screw nut, black strap buttons. The double G in the Hogg is a tribute to my good friend Paul Smith from Worcester, United Kingdom and his awesome CBG line called Stompin' Hogg CBG's.

    When I find em here cost 10 franks each I am off to the flea market on Sunday always have my eyes open ;-)

    I have about 250 plates layin' around here and there so I'm good for a while I think. I'm always buying old and intersting plates, we have quite a few around here so they come up at auctions/flea markets all the time. I just bought 2 old Iowa license plates at the Walnut flea market, one is a 1914 & the other is a 1915. They're in pretty good shape for being 99 years old, doing a rustique build with them. That's my new word in the nieghborhood today.

    Everyone say it with me............    "Rustique"       :-)

    Help yourself Davey, I use a 3/8" rabbit bit in my router to make the inset and set it about 1/8" deep and run it around the inside. I do the same for the back of the box but set it to cut 1/4" deep for my 1/4" plywood back.

    Makes the finish so much nicer. I will borrow that idea if you don't mind;-)

    Thanks S.D.!

    Thanks Davey! It took a LOT of grinding and test fitting but I finally got a snug fit in the recess of the wood.
