It's not about how it sounds, it's about is it playable. The pickups aren't going to know if their mounted on wood or plastic and it likely won't change the sound they pick up that much. As long as it's putting out a usable signal you can use effects and processing to make it sound how you want.
Making it playable was the hard part I'm sure. Getting the strings exactly aligned and set from the fret board would take a very well designed 3d model. I'm sure the plastic had a negative effect on how the strings vibrate but it looks like it wasn't an issue. All in all it turned out great.
Actually hate to burst ya bubble but the wood does 100% effect how the guitar sound, it effects how it vibrates and how it sustains the note. It’s why every guitarist myself included have a preferred body wood type since it can massively impact each note.
@@gamingprise3157 Unfortunately most don't believe in tone wood, but seeing your comment I finally smiled reading someone's opinion that goes over how the wood DOES affect the tone, as opposed to different opinion you typically see/hear even from guitarists themselves
This is great. Im about to retire and think this would be a great gift to my son. He plays the guitar and other instruments. Thanks for the inspiration and please keep up these types of videos!
It's a fun project if you have the time to get everything right. It's also genuinely good to play, so I'm told😊
Once I hit that midlife crisis, I know what I'm going to do. Design and print my own, dream guitar. Thank you for inspiration! ❤
This was a great pair of videos. A real journey through the ups and downs of completing any project.
Pretty cool.
I got a beater acoustic recently and 3D printed a replacement nut and saddle for it. They were originally just meant to be temporary to get the thing playable ASAP and then replaced with "real" ones at the next string change, but they worked perfectly and it all sounds good so I'm just going to keep them on the guitar!
great video, more projects please Ricky
I wouldn't call bad neck dive "unplayable standing up"
I've played guitars and basses (namely an Epiphone SG bass) that had horrible neck dive, and they were all fine to play standing up, I just had to make sure not to let go of it at any point lmao
Well I guess this is my sign to finally learn guitar
Definitely more projects, this is excellent and inspiring!
Well done Ricky! Patience and perseverance pays off. Rock solid and Rockin'!
Perhaps a wind instrument next?
CONGRATULATIONS
Wood filament
I know where that extra 3mm came from - using the filament spool on the top! So, if you're doing this and NOT using a spool side, don't chop that 3mm out of the bridge! 🎸 But, but, but ... tone woods! Where are the tone woods?
It would be interesting to see how other models compare. Specifically the Prusacaster which looks cooler, I'm interested in if it plays better since that uses more guitar hardware with the upside of not needing to be able to build the neck yourself.
Try making it bigger or make a violin?
Why are you always in a pit (for lack of a better term)?
