Ergo design Archtop guitar for Dan Phillips- design phase!

Here’s a the beginnings to an interesting project! My client Dan showed me pictures of a guitar that he has, as well as his hand drawn plans for an archtop version of the guitar. (first row in this gallery). After plenty of back and forth collaboration I have the CAD rendered plans ready for what promises to be a very unique and interesting guitar! It draws inspiration from Klein-type instruments in that it is designed for ergonomics, vertical alignment and with a headless design. But with an archtop guitar mentality with a carved top and back. It will be very compact for travel, and I also figured out how to add a removable center block for louder gigs which will increase the guitars versatility!
