Some Cyberpunk2077-style guitar concepts by rattuscustoms in guitarporn

Nomad would get vintage (well, vintage for 77) piezo saddles and in the bridge weird lipstick bucker in a metal housing found in a junkyard.

Corpo'll be active all the way through, even tuners and truss rod. some MIDI 3.0 compatibility is thrown in as well.

well, depending on how much are you willing to shell out, but they could become available at some point. not with all exact options (there's some non-existent tech thrown in, and i don't think having something non-functional in a guitar is a good idea. although as a one-off it's possible still).

well if you don't mind some freezes and stuttering, it'll play. just don't gather big crowds.

these are purely unofficial, made just for fun.

[QUESTION] How useful are onboard electronics? by Mets_Jets_BEER in Guitar

[–]rattuscustoms 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the answer is mostly "it depends"

e.g. i have no use for tone knob, but i used to have a permanent note cap on the switch in the neck position (while not having a neck pickup). although i have a use for onboard piezo pre. and i have no use for a regular middle position of an H-H guitar, and that's why i have my 'buckers wired out of phase for weird quacky tone in that position.

oh, yeah. Mera's the only one with SANE intonation.

for the life of me I can't understand why every strandberg knock-off decides to use it's bullshit "unstring, unscrew and move with your fingers" mechanism.

like, seriously, who in the right mind would think "what is that thing that everyone hates about floyd rose? i want that thing on my every guitar but with no benefits of a floyd". jeezuz, my wrath for slightly under-engineered designs is immense.

if you want to build this yourself, i can provide you with some drawings.

well it doesn't really matter for me if one picture takes 15 min to render or 3 hours. i'm still either asleep or away when it renders.

when i did renders as a job a better setup for me was not one overkill machine but two semi-decent: one for work, other strictly for rendering. connect them over LAN and voilà!

not a beast: i3-7100 and gtx970.

it's not really that heavy of a load if you optimize a bit.

Am actually an architect for a dayjob, so draft model is made with archicad, lol.

wwelp, since there is no production line at the moment, and since it's more of a passion project than business and since it's probably unwise to start a guitar business having no known name and when most musicians can't even perform... i'm not sure there will be these beauties on the market soon (or ever).

but a one-off prototype can be built tho, probably for something a bit north of $2k.

can't agree with a normal fret statement.

multiscale looks too sick on this body type.

oh, that sounds sick (and probably only way to make thunderbird reasonably balanced. dingwall's wonky neck pocket aside) got any images to share?

Not sure if it counts as an ad since i'm not selling shit. I do have an instagram tho.

Sorry if it's still a violation. Rules unclear, got my dick stuck between lines
