Number Plate Guitar

I recall seeing a forum thread about a number plate guitar. I've just found this tin plate in my storage. I may turn into an axe and quite ironically it won't be 'Top Gear'

nice one Ponch, it was one of Kimball's recording software plug in threads earlier this week that the topic radically changed. Cool plate man. All I've been thinking all week is the design of the numberplate axe. I'm going to go a pine solid body so I can mount a F type 6 string neck. My buddy Wayne is planning a plywood made box and 4 string CBG style neck.
Look forward to your build diary Ponch !
Had a look on Ebay and can get US plates posted for about $12-14 each

Nice one Woks. I was thinking similar with a bolt in f type neck &. single humbucker coil split with a tele bridge (no pup style)

I've got one, which is a cigar box, but did not make it, got it made up for me.

Hey DB07 can you please post a pic of your number plate axe ?

I'm well into my build, will post some pics later, done a solid body pine body with PBG-1 neck

been a productive last 24 hours, managed to buy the materials, glued the body, routed neck pocket and mini humbucker cavities, cut the plate to suit, just going one volume push pull coil split on the mini bucker. Here's some progress pics

so some more pics, its since had a coat of primer and metallic blue paint to match the blue of the WA plate.
It's basically a 1980's Volvo shape design a square box !

cool Wokka! Tempting project!

Where's that neck from?

Your quick off the mark Woks I'm still planning mine in my head! Nice job
