Paper guitars

These are the first two models I've built. I completed them back in September, but am just now posting pictures. Both were free downloads from paperguitar.com.

The first is a Fender Telecaster. The second a Gibson Flying V.

Those look really decent for your first 2 card models.

I downloaded these some time back and have never gotten around to building them..

Did you use real string on either of them?

Look really nice, thank.

Very nice! I also downloaded some from paperguitar, but I haven't done mine either. You've inspired me to get started.

Thanks for the comments.

Swampfox: Both guitars were built as printed. The strings are printed as part of the fingerboards and either the bridge saddles or tailpiece and have to be cut out over the pickups - what a pain. I thought about using some kind of thread for the strings, and maybe I will if/when I build more guitars - I have a bunch more printed.

Rats, now I want to build paper guitars.

Very cool! I'm new to the forum, and am learning about all the neat models available. Thanks for the paper guitar link; I have a musician friend that I have to build some of these for.

Great builds of FINE guitars - i owned these in REAL form along time ago, and i was wanting to build some paper ones - BUT, the one i desire is the Gibson SG Cherry. I started to design this but have yet to finish it.... if i ever get it done, you can have a copy of it for sure

All the best with all your builds, you are a coooool dude

These will go nice with my drums! Nice build!

Those are really nice. I need to get a couple of my downloads done, especially the Rickenbacker 12 string.

Awesome builds!

Now I want to build a guitar! Will download and try to make the time to build one.

Thanks for the link!
