PS.  Bob "Ambrose" Negus, the Tailpiece is $2 Nickel Plated Hinge, more robust than a lot of the other fancier hinges, and one my favourites, which features on many of my builds. :-)

"Thanks  Bob "Ambrose" Negus", would love to see your 1st LPG build, I think this one takes my tally of LPG's to 11, didn't really need another one, but I liked the Plate and couldn't help myself  

:-D

Lovely job AGP! Neat string retainer on the body! I finished building my first LPG last week.  Guess I ought to put it to the "Nation".

"Thanks Denbo", I prefer to keep as much of the Plate uncluttered with Pups, Bridges & Knobs etc as possible, hence the Pickup being where it is and the use of a thin Banjo Bridge.  :-)
