This project is back on track! jeeeh!

Carbon fiber unibody (1 piece back, sides and neck) :







This unibody will recieve a cedar top, the 3rd picture shows some square wood that are being glued on the edge of the neck to give it a bit more gluing surface. Put sandpaper in the neck with the rough side up, and transfer the shape of the curve to the wooden strips.



If all goes well this guitar will be featured in a crowdfunding campaign to get funds for an aluminium mold for professional production. It will be self heating with wires or even with high tech carbon nanocoating for uniform heating...


The goal of this instrument is to combine the clarity of tone of carbon fiber (and dimentional stability) with the warmth of a cedar top.

Stay tuned! (pun intended) ^_^
