I think you may be best suited to print the neck separate from the fret board with ABS or ASA and then Acetone weld together. This allows you to insert the truss rob easier, and also gives you the option to print both with a little extra thickness on the "flat side" so you can sand back to flat. Also if you print the neck part like you did in this video but the fret board either flat on the bed or with the other side on the bed, you will have contradicting layer lines and warping stresses. Also, to be really "metal," you could design the 3, 5, 7, 9, 12, 15, etc fret dots as screw heads and fasten the fret board to the neck with inserts to help with clamping the two parts together.

Honestly, I think the tuning stability issue is more from the cheap floating bridge than the neck. Stock strat bridges are already notorious for tuning issues, and those kit guitars come with junk hardware that just makes the problem even worse. I could see this being a lot more functional on a tele. Simpler design with a stationary bridge would remove a lot of variables. I would be super curious to see what would happen if you sent it off to get it scanned on a PLEK machine, lol.

Interesting project, great proof of concept too. I do believe that you'll need both the truss rod and carbon fibre reinforcing rods in the neck for longer term stability. I fear that the neck will end up looking like a banana and no amount of truss rod adjustment will fix it. As to how to do it - maybe take a page from Leo Fender - have 3 trenches programmed in on the back side of the neck. Insert the various rods and then cover them over with "skunk stripes" of material that are glued in. Another option is truss rod from the back, CF rods come in from the sides.
@BrunodeSouzaLino

Depeding on how you do the neck, you could forgo the whole adjustable truss rod and use a graphite rod instead. Vigier does that on their guitars. String action adjustments are made on the bridge and by changing the zero fret. As per the frets, you could've done a heated arbor press, so the fret melts the plastic as it goes it. No need to print the slots.
@properprinting

My company uses dual graphene impregnated carbon fiber rods and a truss rod.

You might be able to improve the issues with flexibility by using some carbon fiber rods either side of the truss rod channel which you could insert the same way as the truss rod. this would add more rigidity and mean that the truss rod isn't doing all the work. It might also be worth finding a way to add more support to the headstock, maybe aluminium plates on each face of the headstock would add some extra strength to help with tuning stability. A volute would also be a good idea! It's very impressive that a 3D printed guitar neck is even possible at all! I look forward to seeing more.

hmm, I would suggest something other than PLA personally. it's a very brittle, very sturdy material, but at the same time prone to bending and warping under long durations of stress (think old glass panes). PET is just a little more solid, heavier, and has some actual spring to it. In both cases you'll want to print it thicker, though. something like putting little holes inside the neck, along its length, or using isogrids on the inside. when in doubt, rib it. as well, if you must have structural infill, make sure it's gyroid and at least 2 paths thick. combine all of those, and even some flexible filaments become quite rigid. if you wanted an absolutely straight neck, you might have better luck printing by left and right halves, then using pins or bolts to connect the halves. if your printer is inducing a warp, printing two halves, one flipped, should give you two parts that have opposing and roughly equal internal stresses. it'll also make it easier to get that bar in.

@@properprinting ah, I see, well, not sure on glass any more, but PLA DOES warp slowly due to pressure. PET is a lot harder to print though. it has less natural warp, so that's a definite plus for you, but actually getting solid walls without boogers and gaps can be a pain. I've experienced that much. when it comes to minimizing post processing, definitely look to m5 bolts, then. the process of bolting things together is far faster and less of a pain, even if it does require external hardware. On the other hand, unlike glue, epoxy, or so on, bolts are reusable and standard, so anyone who makes the design again (including you) will always have access to the parts, or if you go to m8 size, you could reasonably print the bolts too!

Good luck printing PET on the CR-30, I fucked up my bed just trying to get it to stick. I ended up moving to the Ideaformer ir3 v1 and haven't had a problem with it now.

Use thicker strings, for a forward neck bend, and thinner strings for the neck to bend more backwards.

If you want more stiffness and tuning stability, as others have suggested, print the fret board and neck separately. Not only will this allow you to fit the truss rod correctly, but, you could also fit two carbon fibre rods, one running down each side of the truss rod. That would likely make it more stable than a standard maple neck without reinforcement. You could also improve the flatness more easily by using levelling files and/or levelling beams before fitting the frets to correct any print inaccuracies.

I would also print the neck as a single piece with no slots. instead of pressing the frets in, just do it like you do for threaded inserts, maybe using some implement to heat the arbor press and the fret.

As a guitar collector and luthier I almost died when you said you were going to cut a koa thru neck b.c rich 😅
