Summary/Abstract: This paper presents the selection of technology, technological and working procedures to construct the body of an electric guitar (Stratocaster type.). The used material for the electric guitar construction was carbon composite material offset by standardly used components. The carbon composite was chosen because of its excellent properties suitable for guitar construction. Described and used technologies were Manual Wet Lamination Technology and Vacuum Bag Molding (VBM) technology, and both are affordable and uncomplicated methods.
