The Mina Violin (Electric)

I wanted to design a classical / modern style electric violin. Something that pays homage to the curves of a Stradivarius while showcasing what you can do with crystal PLA on a 3D printer. I hope you like it. Due to popular demand, my violins are now available assembled and customizable for you on Etsy as well: https://www.etsy.com/listing/687390452/the-jax-dragon-violin This design uses a standard violin bridge, allows for a standard shoulder rest and allows for a traditional style 3D printed chin rest (included and set up for screw on brackets). I've always been a bit of a steampunk aesthete, hence the clockwork and filigree. But if you prefer, I've also included blank pieces of the design in case you want to remix or go with the clean look. Since the lower bout and waist of the violin can't be printed as one piece on a standard 8" printer, the waist parts screw on (so they can be replaced if broken or left out all together if you choose). You will likely have to print the lower bout at 45º in order to fit. Either way I can't wait to see what you make of it. If you're looking for a nice way to display them, check out my Electric Violin Wall Hanger: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2575603 Oh and the parts are interchangeable with my other violin...

UPDATED (2017-2-23): Cleaned up the Body and Chin Rest files. UPDATED (2017-3-16): While the original neck design from Stepan83 was really good, I wasn't completely satisfied with the wiring for the pickup, as the wire goes through where the threaded rod resides. So I tweaked "violin_neck_part2.STL" and created "violin_neck_part2_better_pickup_wiring.STL" which provides a little space behind the pickup and allows the wire to go on either side of the threaded rod.
