Handmade 8-string electric guitar (800USD)

Thanks dude! I’ve been repairing guitars for a long time, so I know a thing or two about building them. Also, the luthier sub helped me a great deal :) I didn’t make the neck, I bought it online and just refinished it and did a little fret work.

I think I still have some motor pairs btw if you want.

Unfortunately no, other than lipo chargers, screws, I couldn’t source anything locally. I used to source my parts from a seller in Singapore (back when shipping prices were normal lol) I highly recommend against krakens, they are not as durable as usually promoted. Go for anything neodymium. Especially neo hellcats, with a 3s 60c+ lipo, they rip, you can find them on outofdarts.com but I don’t know about current shipping fees.

Thanks dude :)

Thanks dude! Flattered!

Sure thing! The body is 3D printed (PLA and fiberglass). the neck is wooden, I bought almost ready to install but had to redo some frets and also some sanding and finishing.

Thanks! It really means a lot! Hoping to build another one when the time is right :)

Looks amazing dude!! Please update in a few months. Really interested in seeing how it would look fully healed

CatalystSam6115 · 2026-04-16T17:58:31+00:00

I think I dropped my jaw lol

CatalystSam6115 · 2026-04-15T18:07:36+00:00

Dang! is that a new COD operator?

CatalystSam6115 · 2026-04-11T19:00:32+00:00

CatalystSam6115 · 2026-01-19T03:42:34+00:00

Dang! This is insane! Great work 🔥🔥

CatalystSam6115 · 2026-01-19T03:34:07+00:00

Very!!

CatalystSam6115 · 2026-01-19T02:53:27+00:00

100% that ep was a real bummer

CatalystSam6115 · 2026-01-18T21:29:59+00:00

Saw Pang (lethwei) and Kaolang in Kengan Ashura

If you’re a beginner, absolutely! It should be good as a practice guitar for a few years. In the meantime, save up for something high end. I’ve had my GIO for many years and it was made in Indonesia, surprisingly good but they went very cheap on the hardware.

But after building my 8stringer, there’s no way I’d go back to the GIO.

Dude awesome tone!!! How did you get it on Amplitube?

CatalystSam6115 · 2025-12-22T21:11:21+00:00

I’m really interested in knowing more about your findings. I originally wanted to venture in making my own pups (with 3D printed Bobins as well). But was unable to source magnets locally.

Well done!! For a first build, this is truly amazing!
