And many years ago - before the main early music revival and Ovation-
Maccaferro (Sp?) made a serious plastic guitar. Maccafero, of course,
was the luthier made famous by Django Rheinhardt.

I'm sorry, but I have to say it.
Earlier in the renaissance revival, George Kelischek engineered
inexpensive krummhorns using ABS plastic and plastic reeds. They were
far cheaper than wooden krummhorns, and were intended to be quite
popular with schools and amateur groups.
In actual fact, they di
Hello Demery ,
Nice to hear from you again. I am understanding you. Well advea shape

it will be a nice experience to design the sound.

Chris , I think all guitar players would love to own these interesting
instruments. I am researching surbahar and nyckelharpa also. These
instruments are very expensive and hard to construct by hand. I know
beginners mind , they want best wood , finish , neck shape and nothing
else.
Mustafa,
I don't understand the specifics of what you're suggesting, but I
have no problem with the theory. Personally, I could care less what an
instrument is made of if it plays and sounds good. As for non-organic
materials, if you're a lute player using synthetic strings,

Hello All , Hello Demery , I am happy to read that you understood the
benefits of this system.
This is a new business model not a scam and I dont want anybodys money
now but help.
If we create a model database and decrease these instruments price and
accessibility , it will be

And I don't think you will find too many paper seismographs anymore in any
case, except for display and monitoring purposes. Even back in the mid-90s,
when I was still a practicing Geophysicist, helicorders were an old
technology, and on the way out for serious research.

Nothing in the quote you offer implies fraud or facetiousness, Rainer. It
even makes somewhat of an almost semi-valid point, although it seems to
confuse the concept of resolution with physical size. In any event, I can
think of few instruments that interest me less than carbon-fiber lutes.

Correct but you have to supply the 3D CAD file and you have to buy the strings
;-)
Now for a small fee I can do the CAD file... Ha,Ha.

Collective All,
I don't think this guy is for real. This is a scam.
What he is offering is something called Rapid Prototyping. A process whereby
you supply him with 3d CAD files; usually of a type known as .STL, which are
then sent to a Rapid Prototype printer. I won't go into the way it works.

Sorry, but I think Mr Sarac is serious. Some time ago I saw videos on
YouTube of an assembly in Istanbul where ouds were presented that were
manufactured in the way described by Mr Sarac. Those ouds were played
and compared to traditionally built ouds, and players would find them
okay. I don't thin
