For guitars with flat fretboards, also see my model

https://makerworld.com/models/1710191

For assembly, I used PCTG, and for the soft TPU part, a filament with a Shore hardness of 60A

Printed from PLA as for now that is what I have, PCTG is not available local to me. It and came out good and looks strong enough. Unfortunately its not usable for my guitar since the frets are flat, this causes the middle chords to resonate. But I believe it's excellent for an acoustic guitar. If you plan to create one for a classic guitar will print again it for sure.

difficult to put it on a guitar

If one doesn't use the original TPU part and also attaches a TPU part to the lower arm, the opening is too small This is not due to the component itself It's a little peculiar to criticize something one has modified for the worse isn't it

Great idea, unfortunately the print supports are very difficult to remove from the rail, however everything printed fine so far I used PETG-HC and Bambu TPU for AMS

Excellent!! Removing the supports was a bit challenging, but ultimately, an outstanding job

Unfortunately it broke while using. It seems that the pressure needed to clamp the strings was to high. But I really like the idea and applaud the effort :)

@chessdesign

Which filament did you use?

@razetiger

Replying to @chessdesign :

Dried PETG Black

@chessdesign

Replying to @razetiger :

The print profile and the component are tested with PCTG. PETG is not strong enough! I find it a little strange to give a bad rating because a component breaks if you don't follow the print profile's specifications!

@BackYarder

tried printing twice (abs), broke on the pivot pin both times. Spewin.

The designer has replied

@chessdesign

This profile is not intended for ABS either It explicitly states that it should be printed with PCTG

Replying to @chessdesign :

PCTG is no stronger than ABS. But it's your model and i aint printing it again. thanks & Cheers.

@Subpop

Capo printed ok, but the bar failed to print correctly in pla or petg :(

The designer has replied

@chessdesign

If by bar you mean the part that directly touches the strings, then this should be printed with TPU. I printed it with TPU 60A. PLA and PETG are too hard and stiff for that. The capo itself should be printed in PCTG!
