Cardboard Guitar Fender Stratocaster...

What happens when it gets wet? :facepalm:

That was kind of my concern, too.

It’s a neat novelty and I’m sure it was a load of fun to build. But, I’m unsure of its viability as a gigging instrument.

How will it react to humid weather, sweat, and the normal rigors of use?

But, after giving it a bit more thought, I doubt the packaging company who initiated this had any serious intention of making a long-term gigging instrument. It strikes me more as one of those, "Gee, I wonder if we can do this..." type of things.

They can truly claim to be a packaging company that designed a cardboard substrate strong enough to make a functional electric guitar. There's a big "cool" factor, right there. If anything, that packaging company has some serious marketing material now!
