Ember Guitar

Description

Here's a close up picture of my Ember guitar! I cary this around pretty much all day when I cosplay her! It's not quite done. We've decided we're going to make her different buttons light up and were going to put in a switch so I can make them light up. We also might add speakers into the guitar so that it can play Ember's song. Lastly, the head is being completely re-done because it broke.

THIS IS A FULL WORKING ELECTRIC GUITAR WITH ALL THE PARTS. The body was hand carved from two sheets of thick plywood and the neck and all the parts were taken from a real electric guitar. the only problem is that the strings had to be shortened so that the tail piece would appear proportional so the frets don't line up but it is tuned open and does play.

Anyways, that being said here's the real question:

Would you like one for yourself? And the the follow up: how much would you be willing to pay for a custom, handmade electric guitar?

Here are your options:

:bulletblack: This guitar, as it appears. No lights or speakers. Fully functional but non-playable.
:bulletblack: Modified body. Thinner (not as heavy) and different shaped to give the appearance of a longer neck. Adjusted bridge so that it is playable. Fully functional.
:bulletblack: The works. Either body but with added lights, speakers, etc.
:bulletblack: Nonfunctional but still real. Either body but with a nonfunctioning neck and hardware.
:bulletblack: Prop guitar. Exact shape, size and color as Ember's guitar but just a prop. Made out of foam board, cardboard or something of a lighter, easier to cary nature. Nonfunctional.
:bulletblack: Combination. Mix and match any of the above options. Total prop but with lights and speakers? Fully functional neck but made out of foam board? Your choice!

This isn't an order form, it's purely to check out interest.



Just comment something like: "Cool guitar! I'd love a prop model of it but I wouldn't pay more than $X." or, "I'd love a fully functional, supped up guitar with a real neck and everything. I'd probably pay about $X for that!"

Please note, real guitars cost a good deal to buy so real neck and hardware is more expensive.

:D Hope you like it! :D

Replicas are hard to come by as they're very expensive to make, even for functional ones.

This is so grand and perfect for Ember cosplayers who also can play the guitar too.
