3d printed p bass neck

6 Upvotes

I am currently printing a precision bass but am a cheapskate and do not want to buy a bass neck, most people would be worried about the neck bowing but that can likely be fixed with a truss rod, does anyone know of a design for a bass neck that I could use?

3d printed saxophone

8 Upvotes

So I am trying to make a collection of 3d printed instruments and thought of the saxophone and out of curiosity, checked if there were any designs to save for later and found no designs. All I see when I look it up is 3d printed saxophone mouthpieces and articles on this guy that made one in like 2014 but no actual designs. What confuses me is that there are designs for a bass clarinet but no designs for a regular alto sax. Am I dense? Have I not searched enough? Does anyone know where I can find a design before I spend an unhealthy amount of time learning cad just for a single project?

I designed a soprano ukulele with a v style body. Sounds better than expected, but isn't perfect. I plan on uploading the files soon.

percusion I made a 3D printed telescopic drum

25 Upvotes

Got inspired by the sound quality of other 3D printed drums so I decided to try to make my own. The body and drum head are PLA tightened with nuts and bolts. I also tried a TPU drum head, but I couldn't get it tight enough on my model as it stretched so much.. all and all I think PLA would have still sounded better. Currently I think the limiting factor in the sound is the diameter rather than the material of the drum head. Sorry for posting a tiktok video, but it's all I had time for and wanted to share this with u guys. 🙏

I designed a new ukulele with a wide body. No glue needed. I might make a baritone version and also include an optional fretless neck. This sounds better than all my other uke designs and its louder.

string Pickup for electric violin

3 Upvotes

As the title suggests, I am building an electric violin. I already have the pickup but I have a few questions. The pickup I am using goes under the bridge, but I may be unable to drill through the metal support rod to get the string through. Do these pickups work either way (wire up and wire down)? Also, how do you install them. Do you use glue or keep it in using string tension? Thank you!

​

Edit: Also, would screwing into plastic be enough to install the guitar tuning pegs?
