Over the 2024 Holidays, I remixed the Minicaster (itself a remix of the Prusacaster) into this Premium version.

I didn't want to use the Amazon and Thomann kits as the quality of the components was likely not great for the price. 

Instead, I purchased a Telecaster neck on ebay and the following on AliExpress. I've been extremely pleased with the end results! 

Note that some of these links are affiliate---I'm only sharing items that I personally bought and used for this build.

• About 2.5 rolls of filament. I used Elegoo PLA+. The print settings have been set to ensure as solid of a body as possible. Don't change them!
• 1 Squier or Fender telecaster neck---this project includes my own remix designed with an accurate Telecaster neck plan. I bought from Twangulator on Ebay and can recommend them.
• 1 Wilkinson WOT01 Tele Bridge on AliExpress---this one is great!
• 1 Fleor Vintage Alnico Pickups for Telecaster---these pickups are a-ma-zing. Mind-blowing quality and sound for the price!
• 1 prewired Telecaster plate on AliExpress (I ended up redoing the wiring and the screws broke on this one---you could maybe find a better one)
• 1 neck plate on AliExpress
• 1 strap locks on AliExpress
• 1 jack input on AliExpress
• 1 jack plate on AliExpress (this wasn't a perfect fit, feel free to use a different one)

It's a pretty long project---it will take you a few days to print all the parts. Don't rush it. 

You'll need to glue the different parts together. I used Epoxy glue and it was a bit too messy to my taste. You could maybe be ok with just super glue.

The original model has holes for M6 bolts---I haven't felt the need for them.

However, to join the 2 core parts, I've used 10-24 bolt dipped in epoxy to strengthen the bond. 

Once the body is assembled, you can screw the neck using the screws and the neck plate

1. First, you'll need copper adhesive tape to isolate the pickups and electronics cavities.
2. You'll then need to screw the pickups onto the bridge plate and the pickguard, and pass the wires in the tunnels between cavities
3. Don't forget to put a ground wire under the bridge plate!
4. You'll need to solder the pickups, ground wires, and jack input onto the plate
5. Test everything before screwing the plate and pickguard!
6. Once you've validated that your wiring is functional, you can string the guitar and tune it. 
7. Rock'n'roll!
