Hey Everyone,

I've been installing a Korg KAOSS Pad KP-2 in my Telecaster, and have gotten to the step of fabricating a trim piece that will serve two purposes:
1. Hold the unit in the body of the guitar
2. Serve as a cosmetic trim piece

I know many of you have expressed interest in getting a copy of the finalized CAD file, which you can upload to Ponoko, or any such fabrication website. After much experimentation, I am happy to say I've got a great model, free for your use!

Here are some pics:

Super cool! You should throw a Monotron in there while you're at it!



(i have the Monotron Delay. It's a lot of fun)

Hey, that would make for an interesting project. I was actually thinking of doing a Telecaster with a Zvex Wah Probe sensor, for the next one... :)

I saw a guy on Youtube who just velcro'd his Monotron below the bridge.


So, that'd be a pretty easy way to do it!


Wah Probe or Fuzz Probe would be awesome
