Hi Bill and Sanford, << What kind of a guitar do you like? I might be able to get you a Stratocaster type…..>> Strat seems to be a popular word in this house.. 🙂 << How many faces can you handle? >> 5-10K. Big Thanks for the interest.

Jonas, I will do a test guitar for you to see if you can use it. If you want mesh frets and strings, it will take more faces. If you are going to animate fingers over the frets and strings, they should be part of the mesh, not a texture map so it doesnt look flat. How much realism are you going for? Sanford

Hi Sanford, << How much realism are you going for? >> Complete.. ;-}

Jonas, <<Complete realism>> Sounds OK. I can do a very cool Strat, and you can use it for your animation. Of course, I will retain the rights to resell the mesh after Siggraph. I hope you like it. My Strat has a locking string nut and a pro dive bar tremolo.. It is red. Any color preferences? Sanford
