A Little History…..• Initially created out of a need to
be heard among many horns in big band music and from a popularity in Hawaiian and Western swing music.
• The result changed popular music for decades and had immeasurable impact on our culture.

What About EDU?
![Page 21: Electric Guitars: A Vehicle for STEM and Distributed Manufacturing Education The Perfect Hook for Students from Any Background](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070500/5681685a550346895dde8e44/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Bring Manufacturing Directly into the Classroom
“total active learning extravaganza”
Felder, Brent, ACTIVE LEARNING: AN INTRODUCTION - PG 2

STEM Guitar Distributed Manufacturing
• Relies on the contributions and coordination of off-site locations
• Allows for specialization• Capitalizes on existing tools and
machinery• Strong central planning is
essential for success• Generates revenue stream for
participants
![Page 24: Electric Guitars: A Vehicle for STEM and Distributed Manufacturing Education The Perfect Hook for Students from Any Background](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070500/5681685a550346895dde8e44/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
STEM Guitar Distributed Manufacturing
• Collaboration is key• Use of file sharing among
manufacturing locations– Communication– Design files– Machining CNC files
• Countless other schools access the machining files via the guitarbuilding.org website
• Foray in to Cloud Manufacturing
![Page 25: Electric Guitars: A Vehicle for STEM and Distributed Manufacturing Education The Perfect Hook for Students from Any Background](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070500/5681685a550346895dde8e44/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Examples• Southern Wells H.S., Poneto, IN
– Fretboards– R&D for prototype instrument
development• Stebbins H.S., Dayton, OH
– Fret wire rollers– Ferrule punches
• Sinclair C.C., Dayton, OH– Coordinates production– Orders bulk hardware– Produces bodies and necks– Packs and ships guitar kits
![Page 26: Electric Guitars: A Vehicle for STEM and Distributed Manufacturing Education The Perfect Hook for Students from Any Background](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070500/5681685a550346895dde8e44/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Incentive is Key for Southern Wells
• Students earn credits toward their guitars
OR• towards other guitar merchandise
– (typically purchased from Sweetwater)• Student receives healthy portion of
the income per unit• Balance of IPU is used for
perpetuation: tools replacement, consumable supplies for the production of the item to occur
![Page 27: Electric Guitars: A Vehicle for STEM and Distributed Manufacturing Education The Perfect Hook for Students from Any Background](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070500/5681685a550346895dde8e44/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Student-centered• Students take ownership of
their work– See first-hand the creation of
revenue• Gain first-hand experience in
Quality Control– Students are expected to have a
hand in Q.C.• We reject items that are not to
spec– Students realize rejected items
do not generate revenue
![Page 28: Electric Guitars: A Vehicle for STEM and Distributed Manufacturing Education The Perfect Hook for Students from Any Background](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070500/5681685a550346895dde8e44/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Room to Grow• Began at 125 kits year
2009-2010 school year• Projected 800+ kits 2012-
2013 school year• Sinclair is approaching peak
production capability
![Page 29: Electric Guitars: A Vehicle for STEM and Distributed Manufacturing Education The Perfect Hook for Students from Any Background](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070500/5681685a550346895dde8e44/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Room to Grow• Based on innovative ideas from
workshop participants• Possible new and improved products– Electric Bass guitar– Amplifiers with speakers or headphone
jack– Injection molded plastic items: string
nuts, knobs– Wood items: body blanks, neck blanks,
fretboards– Specialty luthiery tools
![Page 30: Electric Guitars: A Vehicle for STEM and Distributed Manufacturing Education The Perfect Hook for Students from Any Background](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070500/5681685a550346895dde8e44/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
