Artist Builds An Electric Guitar Out of 1200 Colored Pencils


Believe it or not, you can do more with colored pencils than just drawing. Much, much more.

Artist Burls Art decided to take it up an octave, creating an unbelievable custom electric guitar.

“I saw a lot of people online making bowls out of colored pencils and I thought that was really cool but I wanted to make something that I can actually utilize and enjoy more so than a bowl when it’s finished,” Burls Art told us. “Since I play guitar, I thought this would be a cool project that would accomplish that goal. I decided on making a (Fender) Stratocaster styled electric guitar… This was the first guitar I’ve ever built”

We’ve set out the step-by-step instructions on how to make this beauty below if you have some time on your hands!
