Electric guitar -- Chaoscaster

The Chaoscaster is a bold reimagining of the Telecaster, featuring a 3D-printed body with explosive spikes bursting from its center. Equipped with two powerful humbuckers, this guitar delivers a high-output sound that matches its wild, chaotic appearance. Built for players who crave something edgy and unconventional, the Chaoscaster is an instrument that truly stands out. This print was done with Polymaker Polyterra PLA (charcoal black & Cotton white) I recommend this, or other filament with a matte finish. I personally used Guitar Fetish hardware and pickups (Vintage '59 Alnico) including the electronics. https://www.guitarfetish.com/ Fairly affordable and absolutely awesome sound! Pretty much every strat-style neck will fit this model. **assembly** the parts fit together very tightly. If too tight, shave/sand the glue surfaces until its snug. After glueing all parts together; wait a day at least before assembling the rest of the guitar, to let the glue and the parts settle. Especially the 2 center parts will be very tight, shave and sand until they fit, use clamps to push them together if needed. Some assembly holes will be too tight, drill them out if needed, then just screw straignt in the plastic. When installing the electronics drill a small hole for the ground wire from electronics cavity to just in front of the bridge holes. I also used conductive paint to shield te electronics cavity: https://www.amazon.nl/LiquiwireTM-gitaarafscherming-PCB-reparatie-doe-het-zelf-toepassingen/dp/B07XBGZRV7?source=ps-sl-shoppingads-lpcontext&ref_=fplfs&smid=A2XDDIDH8L8KTL&th=1 potrings are optional but give a cool touch beneath the volume and tone knobs. **Hardware** I noticed some parts out of stock, but many guitar parts can be exchanged anyhow here are the exact parts i used in this build: Neck: https://www.falkonguitars.se/products/roasted-vintage-replacement-st-guitar-neck-maple-22-fingerboard?_pos=1&_psq=roasted+vintage+st&_ss=e&_v=1.0 Pickups and wiring harness: Vintage '59 Alnico humbuckers https://www.guitarfetish.com/KP--Vintage-59-Alnico-Humbucker-Classic-Tone-Gold--Kwikplug%E2%84%A2-Ready_p_21827.html Wiring harness: https://www.guitarfetish.com/Kwikplug-Universal-Two-HB-Coil-Tap-Wiring-Harness-PRE-SOLDERED-Drop-In_p_21909.html Bridge: https://www.guitarfetish.com/Gold-Hardtail-Bridge-fits-Telesreg-and-Stratsreg_p_381.html tuners: https://www.guitarfetish.com/GFS-6-on-a-plate-Tuners-fits-Fenderreg-headstocks-GOLD_p_62.html pot buttons: https://www.guitarfetish.com/Solid-Brass-Gold-Tophat-bell-knobs-Pair_p_687.html string bushings: https://www.guitarfetish.com/Gold-Vintage-Spec-String-Ferrules-Fits-TeleregHardtail_p_732.html Jackplate: https://www.guitarfetish.com/Jackplate-Football-Gold--Fits-Stratreg--FREE-jack_p_706.html strap buttons: https://www.guitarfetish.com/Pair-Classic-Strap-Buttons-Gold-Free-Screws_p_590.html string trees: https://www.guitarfetish.com/Pair-of-Roller-String-Trees-Gold-Finish_p_602.html Screws: https://www.guitarfetish.com/Gold-Pickguard-Screws--Package-of-20-pcs_p_266.html Neckplate: https://www.guitarfetish.com/Ultra-Thick-Gold-Neck-Plate-with-Screws-Fits-StratregTelereg_p_769.html
