hmmm... that sounds really cool :D
maybe u could do a cardboard cut out of the shape of it... then make pieces to fit? u know how people make slipper soles and hat brims.. that way you could have a non-floppy cool guitar thats flat so u could hang it up or prop it somewheres
just an idea
good luck!

thats a great idea lil thanks! I was just thinking how cool and how origional it would be for him to have free form crocheted guitars hanging above the coffee bar next to a show quaility stratocaster guitar... my bfs been planning this shop for 3 months now i'll be posting pictures of his shop once it is up and running

can't wait to see your guitar! what an awesome idea! maybe you can even run #10 thread as "guitar strings" once you put all the scrumbles in place:hook

Saw this guitar pillow pattern (http://cgi.ebay.com/Crochet-Toy-Pattern-Music-GUITAR-PILLOW-28-long_W0QQitemZ330088792604QQihZ014QQcategoryZ41232 QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem) on Ebay. If the scrumble guitar doesn't work out, you could make a couple of these to toss around.
