Make your own guitar plans

Hello, if you are a hobbyist electric guitar builder on top of all the costs the one that always gets me is plans. On top of being very difficult to find they're usually $30-50 just for the paper plans. So im gonna show you my method for using an art projector and and various other cheap readily availible materials for cooking up your own full sized plans. This method is also good because you can make guitars that are no longer manufactured.

Step 1 Materials needed

1.ruler
2,pencil
3.carbon paper
4.art projector
5.poster board
6.picture of the guitar being made, music distributor websites are a free source, photo bucket etc.
7.black sharpie or marker
8.thumbtacks

This guitar is called an Ibanez XV500 i chose to use it for the lesson b/c it has been discontinued, which just makes you want too make it more LOL

what style of guitar body is this

[iamtoats]

 I think this is an Ibanez.
It says X series in his plan, so im just guessing.... (the x series is all cool shapes and experimental stuff)
It may be discontinued.
