Guitar CNC building

Hello, can someone advise me which CNC setup is best for building electric guitars? I am new to CNC, but am sure a trim router isn’t up to cutting a quitar body!
Thanks in advance for any advise you can offer to help me!

Welcome to the group Scott. Actually the LongMill is capable of cutting a guitar body. Search the FaceBook group for the longmill for guitar and you will find several people are currently building guitars. Both acoustic and solid body. Did a search on this forum and the FaceBook group looking for uploaded files but nothing came up. Did a Google search using this tag “building a guitar on a cnc” created a lot of videos and information. Should get you started at least. Good luck.

He created some great videos on learning Fusion 360 CAD and CAM. His main project was creating a guitar. You’ll find all steps in his channel. Very good details and tutorials.

Thanks Mac, this is a huge help!
