The Electric Guitar
The DS-Telecaster
This is an electric guitar I built fully from scratch. I had made a few other guitars before this, so could apply my acquired knowledge to make this fully functional.
Timeline:
June 2018
Started the build
I had just started he process of building the guitar. I wasn't aware of the intricacies but was very determined to finish it.
August 2018
Finished the body
I finished making the body, but hit a few first dead ends.
-The frets were not available.
-Such a small bridge wasn't available in the market
-Such small pickups were not available in the market.
With no choice and a lot of time and effort already invested in the project i decided to make my own bridge and pickups from scratch. I made the bridge from an old l clam lying around at home and the pickups by winding copper wire around neodymium magnets.
January 2019
Finished
It was finally finished
February 2020
Presented the working in Physics class
We were learning the chapter electromagnetism. I presented the working f the guitar in order to get my classmates interested in the topic
