Thanks guys. Yup, i’m A relic. I’m trying to make sense of the numbers but haven’t come up with anything (crept it will be a 3 string and I have made that many guits). The plate won’t have holes crept screw holes. Side soundholes. WickedBucker on the neck. I’ll fret this one myself. Got an official Gitty fretsaw and crowning file. I’ll give it a go anyways. I like the black and gold or off white stripe idea Uncle. Slothead in Cedar like the half Box guitar. Walnut fretboard from a blank Mike Orr sent with my last order.

"Nice Plate Dave", always nice to have a meaningful message in some of our builds, ie;  "Missouri 1944" your Year & Birth State, "187-573", is that how many Builds and Cigar Box's you have laying around your place ???????  :-D

I thought you had a Missouri Connection.  Great looking plate.   I kind of hope for a Lynas open head stock and painted fret markers.   Oh, and no cutting the plate if you can help it.  Your call of course.  How would black and gold paint on the neck go?

If this is your birth year, you ain't so old.
