New Les Paul

[LiquidGuitars]

Here is a new cad cam LP I made. The parts where made last year . I had a request for a 59 last month so it was a quick assembly and then finish. The LP was made on the CNC including fingerboards frets and inlay.

Very nice guitar bro was that done on the Carveright machine or other ? maybe you could do a tutorial on how it was done now that would be cool

You cant leave us hanging like that, post a sweet looking LP and not tell us more !! We want details! Was the LP Digitizing thread useful in this build? Did you route the maple carve top as a separate piece? Was the neck done also cut on a CNC? Wow there's so much going on in that pic, its a damn nice guitar Liquid. -Vinny

LP Digitizing thread useful in this build?

yes and no.. I do not scan but model by hand the 3D work is what Lightwave 3D calls meta nurbs this is a solid surface format STL likes the best..

Did you route the maple carve top as a separate piece?

yes, here a little video of the top after a 2.52:55 min carve, bridge holes drilled,routs for pickups ect in one pass.

Beautiful stuff there, I cant imagine the hours it took to get these kind of results. Very creative use of jigs, I especially like the drop down ramp to hold the neck while cutting the headstock, very clever! I hope to be there one day at that level. currently making slow progress and seeing someone doing this stuff gives me a boost of enthusiasm.
Thanks, Vinny
