I wanted an ultra-light modifiable electric violin. And finally I can share it with you.
This violin wights with all the parts on just 500 grams, which is the same as my acoustic violin. Moreover, the center of mass is close to the player making the violin feel lighter than an acoustic when playing.
This is made possible by an innovation I came up with and have not seen anyone else do - The violin uses a truss like the one in a guitar neck letting you balance the weight of the strings and tune the neck. Meaning the violin can be printed with just a 15% infill making it ultra light (pegboard box at 20%).
Its made of 7 parts. There are multiple cover gap options and an adhesion-assist option for the shoulder rest.
Build instructions are in my blog post here:
