So as I was sitting here this morning, mostly looking for info on truss rods and neck repairs (pertaining to my recent Eleca thread), I happened to run across this Youtube vid...

As a 3D artist (as in animation) among other things, I thought this was kind of interesting to say the least. I happen to have access to a 3D printer at the Fab Lab up at the local college and while it's a bit pricey, I have to admit this has the ol' wheels turning. I've been playing with the thought of doing an acrylic body for a while now, but I've also been interested in giving this whole 3D printing thing a whirl too......hhmmmmmm. If you look in the background, there's actually some pretty cool guitar designs there.

Anyways, just thought I'd share. This one's definitely a bit "different" 8) .

I saw a video clip somewhere, and a guy from Fender was talking about new technology, and he mentioned that they had been experimenting with 3-D printing.
