While I prefer my ramen noodles to be made fresh these days, there were many times back in college when instant ramen was as staple food, due to its incredible ease of cooking and budget pricing. But one thing I never imagined doing with my ramen noodles was turning them into a guitar.
But that’s exactly what Artem Mayer of Copper Guitars did. He used 36 packs of ramen noodles, and covered them in 5 liters of polyester resin, then cut and sanded the structure into a guitar body. He later would add a maple wood neck, and all the necessary hardware to turn it into a working musical instrument. The intro to Artem’s build video is in Russian, but the rest of it is completely self-explanatory:
I love how he made the effort to sprinkle in the ramen seasoning evenly to make it really look like the finished guitar body has that delicious, brothy look.
