its rather hard and requires a lot of patience that plate look me 3 hours some engravings can take days if not weeks
and it takes years to master

I scratched a pentagram onto my first full size electric guitar on the pickguard but I no longer have that guitar as I sold it to make room for a guitar I'd never engrave due to it looking too good as is.

Engraving update
i used liver of sulphur to give the metal plates a aged look i personally like it but some people prefer it polished
it also helps hide some of the scratches /slip marks
this is both plates complete now i also had to use a fucking chocolate tub to age the plates i put them in used boiling water and liver of sulphur and wiped off the excess patina with a cloth
