Hello.

Building along the Dragon Panther V Beobachtungswagen. I decided to do something grazy. Building a guitar I thought. Now I didn't know that a guitar were first made around the 16 century's. So I knew it was possible that I could scratch one and use it for my Panther tank.

Well, what do you think??? I hope you will like it anyway.

Kind regards,


Hilbert

Nice work, What's it made from. I remember there was a scene in "Walk the Line" where Johnnny Cash was buying a guitar and the sound hole was a different shape which I thought would be nice to build. Verlinden do a German guitar player I think.

Thanks for the compliments! I will use very fine wire (10th of a millimetre) to represent the strings.

The guitar is made from evergreen plastic sheet.

Thanks for watching!

Great looking guitar!

I wonder if you glue the very small parts with modelglue (revell etc.) or some kind of superglue?
