Plate guitars have the rust  and faded factor instant age.

You should be booked for playin this...haaa

Digger.  Still in progress.  Making adjustments and deciding on tunings.  In this pic the pickup wasn't mounted, the strap wasn't attached, The skull knob is not shown.  Definitely gets attention already.

A second entry. Old Calif. plate, another barn find hinge tree, vinegar/peroxide/salt aged hardware, and another old yardstick fretboard. Beautiful? Hideous?.....Awesome! Another great player, low action slider. Glass finger makes them both sing. Get going, make one! You can not screw it up!

My Birth State and Year nice

That's not ugly,it oozes character,disqualified.

Marri body,Sheoak neck,tiblood donor 002e wire frets,homemade pup,a bit of a junkyard dog

Now your where getting there looks frail. Like the rusted hay cart great electrical looks like 2 pickups?

Only 1 pup RTZ, as for frail,believe me no drummer is gonna get out of line when your holding this thing

Looks like something Uncle Fester would play

Its scary ugly alright... never mind the drummers you've got them sorted now... what would it do to the audience? it looks cool.
