Hi There,

This is my very detailed model of the Dave Grohl Signature Gibson DG-335 semi-hollow guitar. I have been making a collection of my favorite guitarists styles of guitars. I have Chuck Berry's style ES-335 already and naturally that transitioned into the DG-335. with new F-holes now shaped like diamonds and the fretboard and headstock to match Dave's signature style. I think his guitar looks epic in the metalic blue. I didnt have a color that was close so I opted to do mine in the alpine white color scheme which looks pretty stunning as well. 

If you desire the highest level of surface finish. The most important setting you should assure to have set to print are the outer walls first then the inner walls. This setting I believe is found in the advanced settings under quality. Order of walls : Outer/Inner must be on.

In order to complete the model you will need a couple of drill bits to upsize or round out the holes. Because it is printed vertically that affects the top of the circular holes to print oblong. I used a 1/8" drill bit to open up the holes in the front face where the switch, knobs and audio jack go. For the saddle and the bridge you will need a 9/64" drill bit. Lastly, for the strap buckle holes you will need an 11/64" drill bit. Be very careful opening up the top strap hole where the neck is mounted. there is very little edge distance from the lip and can break there.

I hope you enjoy the print and you end up with a beautiful guitar to start, or add to your collection. I will be working on making other models with equal levels of detail in the near future. Please like and boost my model. It will be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,

For best results. I recommend using a High Flow nozzle (I use 0.4mm HF). And a supertack cool build plate from Bambu or Biqu. These are what I recommend for best adhesion and best speed.

I have made a general video describing my many techniques of making these guitar models. I use mostly just super glue, flat file, sand paper and a select size of drill bits to build them. And I use 0.25mm fishing line to add the strings to the model. I go over this in fine detail, just follow the link below for more:
