This is an improved version of my previous work, with the following changes:

  • Different printing orientation for body parts allowing more rounded edges and support free prints, also nicer surface finish.
  • Arm cutout for more ergonomic playing experience.
  • Neck and bridge are recessed into the body more thus making the instrument even thinner, and allowing the pickups to be closer to the strings.
  • Magnetic openable legrest for playing without a strap.
  • Output jack was moved to the left side, and acts as a strap button as well.
  • Metal backplate thickness reduced to 3mm as the previous 5mm was probably overkill, and made it real heavy.
  • Many tolerance issues fixed, dimensions adjusted.

Printing instructions are added as notes to each part file.

  • Printing the main body should be done similar to this:
  • Here is a basic drawing for the 3mm backplate. For more accurate dimensions or cnc machining, look for the .f3d file provided.
  • For the legrest, insert 6x2 round magnets into both the body and the legrest.
