Hey everyone! Its been awhile since I've commented on something, I've been on break from my first semester of college, which was great, and I've kept myself busy with work and this little project:
I got the idea for it from a video I found, but I think the guy had used a full metal body rather than making a frame for the plate.
Anyways, I made one over the break and thought I'd share photos and video.
Heres a photo gallery of the process:

It should open, if it doesn't let me know and I can get the photos up on something else.
Yeah I know I'm off at some points in the video, it was mainly to show how the guitar sounded

Re: Licence Plate Guitar
Hey, that's wonderful...and she sounds real sweet too! But as we've learned from a recent thread here, it's all in the 'fingers' -i.e. you play well
Now get busy already and slap a hot Mosrite pickup or two on 'er and see what reactions you get with her on stage, hehe

Re: Licence Plate Guitar
Hahahah! I need to look into buying pickups for it! Right now its got a Piezo hand made acoustic pic-up inside it, it was amplified in that video, but idk that it was obvious. I'm probably going to make the next one with a pickup on it, hopefully a Mosrite one
