This seriously is the coolest thing I’ve ever seen lol I didn’t even know people were printing guitars. The resin adds such a cool personal flare, love it! Amazing job documenting the process and the prize!
just found you via Reddit. Looking forward to making this! I've done a bunch of builds, and other stuff. The 3d hobby is 100% new to me though, so after I finish my son's cosplay, I'll probably go nuts on guitar stuff.
The Telecaster is my favourite solid body guitar and I really enjoyed watching this build, I think making use of the AMS system by applying xhamfers or filets to the join lines and colouring those joints with a filament close to the resin colour or an alternative accent colour would add to the aesthetics.
@@the3dprintzone I thought it would fit on my ender 3 but it's a no go 😆 The main body is off by 1 inch so I am going to try printing the body standing up tilted back on a 45 degree angle
Hello! I’ve really enjoyed your videos lately! This was great to see as I am trying to do a similar guitar project. But for the body core where you did 6 walls and 40 infill, do you feel like it could be stronger? Is there a lot of flex or tuning stability?
Thanks for the comment! With 6 walls and 40% infill, the core came out very strong. You could of course increase to an even high wall count and higher infill if you want even more strength, but I don’t think it’s necessary.
big thumbs up for your project! The sound is clean and the guitar looks stunning with that epoxy job. If you ever make Alexi Laiho style guitar i'd definitly print that
@@the3dprintzone yeah! Looking toward your next project!! If you wanna do Alexi Laiho guitar, its an asymetric V , just like the Jackson from Randy Rhoads, might be a bit harder to design tho
@@guesswhosback679 just looked at some photos online. Looks fairly simple to design, the asymmetric aspect is not too much of a challenge. Ill add it to the long list of guitar designs I want to do. Just wish I had more time to work on them haha
It would be great if you could list the dimensions of each piece. My print bed is only 200mm X 200mm and I don't think some of these will fit. I don't want to pay for the files only to find that I can't use them.
Thanks for the comment. The parts can fit on a 256mm x 256mm bed. The Core, Outer 1, and Outer 2 parts will be too large for a 200mm x 200mm bed. That being said here are few options you could try to make them work with your printer.... 1.Tilt the parts partially vertically upwards. This option will require more support material, but may allow the parts to fit the bed..... 2. Split the parts into smaller sections. This option may cause issues if you split the center core of the body (as this part holds the string tension between the bridge and neck). Hopefully that helps!

Thank you so much for the comment! Decided it would be cool to make something functional. Agreed, I think resin is a great pairing with 3D prints 😎
I've Printed 6 of them so far, each one vastly different than the others.
That was excellent, to the point while providing plenty of information 👏 👍 👌
Well done sir
Thanks for the feedback! Glad you enjoyed the video. By the way, I plan to post a new 3D printed guitar video this weekend, so stay tuned!
New video is LIVE! ua-cam.com/video/m-vbpDYsbHU/v-deo.html

Awesome, welcome! It's definitely a fun project :) Like and subscribe and let me know if you have any questions! Rock on!

Nice idea! Yea, I’ve thought about creating accent colors using the AMS. Might try that for a future print/design. Thanks for the comment!
you should try to make a flying v that would be sick
Yea, that would be cool! I have so many ideas for designs and not enough time haha! Thanks for the comment!
what about one for us strat lovers? ;)
Definitely on my list of upcoming designs!
Definitely on my print list! Awesome work!
Thank you! Appreciate the comment! It’s definitely a fun project :)
One of the coolest Videos i've ever seen. Realy great!
Thank you! 🎸😄
awesome.... can you make a bass guitar design?
Thank you! I’ve thought about that. Not sure if the plastic would hold up to tension on the thicker bass strings 🤔
I would love to see one of the Les Pauls with a full resin face! Like even around the pick ups! Also, ES 335? :D
@blowenfuse, I like both of these ideas! I’ll definitely give them some consideration. I wish I had more hours in the day 🤣
Oh man the epoxy idea is so smart. I will so be buying this stl on payday. I will have to try and track down a neck/electronics on amazon ca
Thank you! It’s a great project, enjoy!

@@feral7094 are you able to tilt it at a small angle and print with additional supports?
@@the3dprintzone Yup! I lucked out. Great design once again
Awesome! Thank you! 😄

No problem, happy printing! 🎸

Thank you, appreciate the comment! I was thinking of designing a flying-V style guitar, so I’ll add that to the list! 🎵

@@guesswhosback679 thank you! I appreciate it!
Have you tried printing one in PETG or ABS?
I haven’t, but I don’t see why that wouldn’t work
You are using PLA OR PETG fliment SIR.
What is the Nozzle size
How many hours to finish the guitar
PLA, 0.4mm, 35ish hours total
@@the3dprintzone Thanks for replay. If possible to make 3d electric violin sir
I am focused on guitars at the moment, but possibly at some point in the future. I know there are some violin designs out there.
@@the3dprintzone Thanks
TONE WOOD!
cool work. Only the strings are not well-centered. The high E is too close to the edge of the neck, while the low E is way too far.
It would be great if you could list the dimensions of each piece. My print bed is only 200mm X 200mm and I don't think some of these will fit. I don't want to pay for the files only to find that I can't use them.

This option may cause issues if you split the center core of the body (as this part holds the string tension between the bridge and neck). Hopefully that helps!
@@the3dprintzone I thought about splitting the core and adding carbon fiber tubes, but I may see if the tilt works first.
Doesn’t the neck creep over time?
Between the higher infill percentage, additional wall layers, and neck plate the neck stays fairly firm to the body.
How many walls did you use for the core?
The core is printed with 6 walls, at 40% infill. You could increase either of those settings if you want, but it came out nice and rigid
@@the3dprintzoneThanks
What bridge did you use?
The bridge I used in the video is no longer available. I have updated the Core model to work with this bridge: amzn.to/3TWnJTP (affiliate link)
Anyone print the Skulls version and have pics they can share?
The pickup sound out of phase.
Yep, they sure do. I think he needs to reverse the wires on one pickup which should be easy given the no-solder setup he chose.
if this thing turns out to be cool ... you know what ? guitar music industries is very very questionable
So where's the version setup for a Floyd Rose Tremolo ?
