Truly artistic

R.A.D, thank you for for advices and encouragement. When I spoke avoiding copying other's ideas, I meant making the details of guitar similar in looks and design. For an example if one would start to compare Gibson LP vs. Fender Strat he would find that there are almost no similarities at all - shape, design ,materials and hardware , even electronics and scale used - all differ so radically from each other except they are both electric guitars having body, neck, associated hardware and pickups.Same thing happens when you compare Strat to Steinberger or Parker etc. Also interestingly many good technical or design solutions are already patented, even if not used or seen much in real production models.

Very interesting experiments you have going on here. The modular/ergonomic/travel guitar idea has always been appealing for me also. For the past 5 or so years I have tried to come up with suitable modular design. The main goal has been -form follows function and using latest materials and technologies as carbon fiber, CNC, and 3D printing. It has proved to be a daunting task as there seems to be so much different and ways to go and and variants to chose, especially when you try to avoid coping other's ideas.
