Plan Your Build & Get Hardware

ExoGuitar can be confusing! Head over to our build planner to plan your entire build - it'll walk you through every available part and handle compatibility along the way, and it covers all ExoGuitar parts. It's also the best way to get hardware, since it lets you buy everything for a full build in one go, not just this part.

You can find this specific part, ExoGuitar - Face Plates - Acoustic, on our site.

Step 1: Insert Heat Set Inserts

Step 2: Attach Chamber Isolation Plate

Step 3: Insert 2020 Slide In Nuts

Step 4: Assemble Bridge

Step 5: Attach Face Plate and Bridge to 2020 Extrusion

Also, this is a good time to glue in the decorative ring

Step 6: Insert Rear 2020 Slide In Inserts

Step 7: Attach Back Plate

Optional Assembly Step: Piezo Mic

If you are building an acoustic and you don't want to install pezio mics, your build is now complete!

If you ARE building an acoustic and you want to install Pezio Mics, remove the back panel and place the microphones on the inside of the face plate.

These are some suggested locations:

This will give you Highs, Lows, and taps (if you tap on the guitar body).

If you don't want taps, you can just put all three of them in a line across the thick part. I have found that a single Mic in the center also works pretty well. ~~~~
