Gerald,

I worked up an instrumental of "Harlan Alive" that sounds pretty cool using a Roland Mini Cube with Speals settings! The license plate guitars can really moan!

Yeah, if Raylan played a CBG, this is probably what it would look like. That is pretty much why I went with the ebony stain, black hardware and all.

Thanks for noticing! #Nailed it!

Oh!   Got it.  

Comment by Two Dog Guitars on January 29, 2015 at 3:37pm

Uncle John, the plate is a 1984, the S/N is 88.

Super nice.  The county with a lot of history and music.   Looks great.  I like how you did the strings through and the saddle.  Inspired.  The box seems right.   I think I would remove the year sticker to make it seem older.

Ha, Ha, Gerald.   That caught me by surprise.
