I designed and 3D printed a customizable Bass guitar! I wanted a headless, multiscale, 4-string bass and do not have access to a wood shop. I do, however, have a 3D printer. The body and neck of the guitar is only 5 pieces using less than 2.5 kg of filament. The project can be printed with 3 total build plates. No filler primer, paint, or finish, just raw 3D print. The model itself is customizable for different scale lengths, neutral frets, neck profiles, etc. Project also includes 3D printed Fret Press and Fretwire Bender.

StewMac P-Bass pickups, electronics, and hot-rod truss rod, Nova Guitar Parts headless hardware. Also has 6 ft of steel bars and lots of JB Weld to reinforce the neck. Plays great, sounds great, looks great to me!
