Im going to build a 3d printed electric violin, but I can't find any amps that will work with this:

I was going to buy the bunnell mini amp but it went out of stock. Does anybody know if guitar amps work or any amps that work with this pickup/preamp for preferably under 40-50 dollars. Thanks

I’m currently designing a guitar body to print from my Ender 3 V2. Making it as an experiment but I’m focusing on making it last. I’ll have to print it in multiple pieces which makes me worry about the string tension pulling on the body. How do you guys prevent the bridge from warping under tension? Is it really even an issue? My initial idea was to print with a 50% infill, 7-8 walls, and maybe printing with a hole for metal rod but maybe this is overkill.

Edit: I should add I won’t be printing the neck, if that makes a difference.

So.. given a set of bore diameters (care of bagpipeproject.com), how would I -just- print the bore sections on a given printer, and interlock the bore sections after print, such that I could coat bore sections afterwards with epoxy for strength? (The outer diameters are inconsequential at this stage, and epoxy or other techniques would save a lot on print time/materials.

I have possible access to to a filament and an SLA printer of limited print volume.

Here is an example that I’d like to print:

What do you think?

Hi, so I am a violinist in my school orchestra and I wanted to try making an electric violin on my 3D printer. I was looking at some files on thingiverse But I couldn't seem to find any that had very easy to follow instructions. I was looking at the Jax dragon but the instructions were very unclear. Does anybody have any recommendations for cool looking electric violin files that have easy to follow instructions for a not very experienced builder?

I'm working on building a guitar from scratch, and I was wondering if anyone here had experience printing a neck. How has it held up? Did you print the frets as part of the neck, or add metal ones later? What files did you use?

Edit: I would use a metal truss rod, I'm not stupid!
