Russ, I had one just like that only it was gold.
Parents got it for me out of Sears Catalogue in
1953. Guitar was damaged and went in the garbage
(which I regret to admit).
Thanks for the memories.

Now if we could just play that H4 in the digital realm virtually that would be REALLY cool... Steve Ahola

I just used standard AutoCAD. AutoCAD 13 has some good rendering materials that can be applied. Surface modeling in AutoCAD is still in infancy. I simple drew this one in solid 3D and then rendered.

Glad you liked it Roy. Here's another render for you in gold:Roy Thomson wrote:Russ, I had one just like that only it was gold.

Russ - I'm sure many of the forum followers would love to see a stringmaster model.
It would be really cool if you could create a dimensioned drawing of the body from it. - Ed

Very Cool !! I thought it was SketchUp but AC13 is awesome.
My CNC can Hog those out All day long. It just takes money and stir.
