Praxis Guitars are created to be modular, with all the electronic components within one plate that may be exchanged on different physiques or different necks. They are produced from recycled and restored materials, whenever you can, and becasue it is possible that you should reattach pieces to various physiques, you may also upcycle old products and provide them a brand new existence. For example, even a classic schoolbook was changed right into a body.
Not just would be the materials and concept TreeHugger-friendly, but also may be the whole business design. Praxis' website states:
They're produced in a power-efficient atmosphere, using community workshop tools. All the details needed to construct a Praxis Guitar is going to be openly launched summer time 2011 to be able to develop a collaborative community of digital luthiers. In by doing this, Praxis Guitars aims use a community that fosters direct participation and participation between music artists, instrument contractors, as well as their greater atmosphere.
Designer and creator Andrew Benson is focusing on putting the finishing touches about the guitar design, and the moment it's ready, the look and items is going to be launched to curious music artists having a DIY sensibility.
