Thanks, Carl.  Yup, bucker cover flush with the plate.  I did not want to cut into the plate and I iike the sound of a neck mount pickup.

Had to check this out after I saw the video.

What a great gift. I too enjoy giving them away and maybe inspiring someone.

Neat trick with the Gitty bucker. Is it flush with the rest of the fretboard?

You are right, Doug. I had not really noticed that.

Thanks, AGP. It really is a great plate.

Thanks, Denbo. I really liked the gits you kept. Good selections and 'weeding out.'

Thanks Jerry. I think the pic does not do it full justice. Red fret lines for 5, 7 and 12 and red side markers spot on 3,5,7 and 12.

Thanks, Bob. I think he will have fun with it. I hear he is getting a Yamaha acoustic electric and a practice amp. I will likely give it to him early.

Eye-catcher of a build Unc J!  Cool theme. That plate pops out. Nice colour to the body and neck.  He's going to have fun playing that.

A Very Nice LPG 'UJ', excellent job of maintaining the integrity and clean lines of a Very Nice Plate,  and also a Very Nice Gesture to gift it to your 13 yr old friend. :-)

Clean lines! The white bridge visually disappears, so the letters aren’t obstructed and it looks great!

Also pictured is a Dave Lynas black cat slide.  This guitar was never (to my knowledge) played by Slim Whitman.
