This 4-page resource, from the STEM Guitar Project, provides the steps for a classroom demonstration on how to paint a swirl guitar. Materials required include a plastic storage container, borax, oil paint, and a guitar body. Photographs of the process are also included. 

This video, from the LEAD with Guitars in STEM project, is the first in a series of two demonstrating the steps for setting up a guitar. The host, Doug Hunt, first demonstrates fret leveling uses a notched straightedge and fret rocker to ensure all frets on the guitar are the same height. He then...

This video, from the LEAD with Guitars in STEM project, is the second in a series of two demonstrating the steps for setting up a guitar. The host, Doug Hunt, first demonstrates the cutting of excess strings after installation before the installation of the string bar. He then shows the process of...
