Marauder CAD Profile?

Post by JJCam » Sun Sep 26, 2021 4:17 pm

Hello!
I want to make my own guitar body in my CNC class. I've been obsessed with Carlos Lopez's Masterbuilt Marauders so I'm going to build one.
My current issue is getting the body shape right. I've overlaid a few photos I found online, but distortion is making it difficult the process difficult.
I don't need it to be 100% accurate, but I'm planning on getting the control plates from a site called Faction Guitars and I want the curves to match up.

Does anybody know where I could get an accurate drawing or CAD model of the body outline?

Thanks!

Did you see that Faction themselves sell Marauder routing templates? Not sure whether they'd sell the digital version directly, but you could ask them. Or you could get the template and digitize that yourself.

Did you ever receive a response and if so, what was it?
