Im curious how these will hold up over time because there's a lot of pressue from the strings and i dont think pla could handle it almost seems like a better idea is a wooden core with 3d printed wings
The PLA holds up surprisingly well with a high infill percentage for the center core. I recommend a minimum of 40% but 50%+ is better. You can also print in a stronger material for even higher strength to prevent flexing.
Never had interest in 3D Printing but thats so cool, I think im gonna get myself a setup, love all your guitar projects. What do you think about a „Explorer“ style guitar in the future?
You will find that using superglue its gonna break apart sooner or later. Next time use 3D Print Goop. Lasts way longer, and much stronger..Also would have looked much better if you took the time to fill in the seams and sanded them down to blend. They stand out like a sore thumb.
Thanks for the comment! You could, but it would either require you to tilt the parts on your print bed (more support material) or split them into smaller sections.
@@doggosensei341 main drawback would be that you would use more support material. This may "scar" the surface of the print a bit more depending on how easily the supports remove. It will also change the angle of the layers, so not sure how it would impact strength.
Thanks for the comment! I plan to make a humbucker version at some point. Check out my other videos and website to see some of my other designs. I plan to do a Strat designs eventually as well….just not enough time in the day 😁 Any designs in particular you are interested in?

It would be really cool to put those flexible led rope things inside the recess before putting the epoxy in there.
Agreed, that’s a cool idea! 💡
@@the3dprintzone I'd like to print this guitar sometime in the near future so I may try and see what happens.
I’d love to see how it turns out! Tag the3dprintzone on instagram!
Now I know what I’ll do during my holiday.

This is the video I've been waiting for!
😁🤘🏻
Thank you. I believe I had asked if you could do a V some time back. Interesting choice with the tele electronics.
Yes, I received many suggestions for a V shaped guitar, so I designed one! Thanks for the feedback and comment!
@@the3dprintzoneYou bet man. I so can't wait to do this, but I'm currently a hundred hours deep in my son's animatronic costume 😂
@@hereonmarssounds cool! You can add this one to the list 😂
Hey there just found your channel and really want to make my own 7 string humbucker setup do you have and of those designs?
That sounds sweet! Unfortunately I dont have a 7 string humbucker setup option at the moment, but plan to release more designs in the near future!
@@the3dprintzone if you made one that would be amazing and I'd use it whenever I got a printer
Any plans on doing an SG style? Love your videos!
Thanks for the comment and feedback, I appreciate it! I plan to do an SG style at some point in the future, its on my list!

Thank you, appreciate the comment! I will definitely be making an Explorer style design in the future!
Man! I want one in black/ red!
Make one! That would be cool! 😎
First comment in advance. 🥂 Cheers, bro!

hey great videos man but can you tell me if I can print any of these guitars with a bed of dimensions 220x220x250? thanks
Thanks for the comment! You could, but it would either require you to tilt the parts on your print bed (more support material) or split them into smaller sections.
@@the3dprintzone wow i never thought of tilting the parts. Would there be any drawbacks of this?
