WTB Gibson "custom made" plaque

At some point I'm going to put a bigsby on my 345. The biggest problem seems to be sourcing the custom made plate at a decent price. Anyone got one in the spares box they sell? 

Cheers.

Or somewhere that sells them at a decent price? Interested to know the outcome of this myself. Apologies @badlydrawnbanjo hijacking your thread a little there!

Crazy parts in Germany knock them out at €79 each which is a bit costly in my opinion...

Surely getting a local engravers to do one is an option as it will ben their kind of job

Great find, thanks!

Not the correct font or look if 'true vintage' your thing. Not saying they are 'bad' though, just making you aware.

Cheers
