Guest AlexVDL Posted August 24, 2004 Report Share Posted August 24, 2004 If you want to build one, maybe you should try www.guitarbuildingtemplates.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AcousticSmash Posted August 24, 2004 Author Report Share Posted August 24, 2004 i want a layout of the guitar that i can print and cut it out to trace on to a piece of bristol board to use as a template. or just the full dimensions of the guitar itself Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fehgalloway Posted August 24, 2004 Report Share Posted August 24, 2004 I think that Brian has a link on the main page with template sections (I could be wrong). For freebies, try MIMF (register for free) then go to the library www.mimf.com /www.guitarbuild.com Stew-mac sells plans (although I have a feeling they don't sell strat; could be wrong ) or any other suppliers (lmii/warmoth, etc) I'm not sure if they do sell plans, but give them a try. If the worst comes, print of a picture of a strat from Fender's website, go to your local music shop and measure the length, then convert all the measurements over... eg, if the pic is 5cm long and the body is 50cm long (in real life) then times all the measurements on the photo by 10 (not perfect, but better than nothing) and there's your plan Good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slipperywombat Posted August 30, 2004 Report Share Posted August 30, 2004 Another thing you can do to get measurements is just take the measurements from a guitar that's available. I went down and grabbed a PRS off the wall of Guitar Center and took a tape measure to it, and they didn't seem to mind. When I told them why i was taking measurements, they got even more interested and one of the sales guys actually helped me line the measurements up while I wrote down numbers.

ibreakemineedtobuildem Posted August 31, 2004 Report Share Posted August 31, 2004 Fenders website is perfect for making your own outlines at least.They have direct over head shots of their strats and teles.Save the pic,do a little crop and print in four page poster print.Just get a width at last fret measurement or fender spacing to get your size right.
