Author Topic: Building a cardboard guitar  (Read 1663 times)


That's really neat.

I wish you showed more footage of yourself playing the guitar at the end. Was that end segment with or without the guitar plugged into an amp? It sounded like it wasn't.

It also sounded kind of like a cheap ukulele but that's what you'd expect out of a homemade cardboard acoustic.

WHITES ONLY ENGLISH ONLY FORUM

That is insanely better than i thought it would be.

There's no way you could ever get those to hold a tune. Not even at D standard. 6 string guitars exert over 200 pounds of string tension. There's a reason why they're made of wood and often reinforced with carbon fiber rods, in addition to the truss rod. Really neat project, but ultimately very very novel.

Also, please tune your actual guitar.

Still pretty cool for novelty and display.

I run out of ideas at the end so i made some chords
I used guitar rig to record the guitars
with a cable that goes on the computer

As if OP could have built this for any reason other than novel.

There's a company that made an actual full tension and useable cardboard Fender stratocaster.

They used real hardware too.
