To evaluate tensile strength of the carbon composite material we used method of static tensile test according to the STN EN ISO 6892-1:2010-01 standard. The material for the production samples from the composite material was carbon fabrics KORDCARBON 200g/m2 – Twill weave. KORDCARBON 160g/m2 – Plain weave reinforced with epoxy resin Letoxid PR220+hardener EM315. The carbon composite for the test was prepared by Hand lay-up technology and Vacuum Bag molding method. Orientation to the layer laying direction of the individual samples in the test composite material influences the mechanical properties of the carbon fiber composite material produced by Hand lay-up technology and VMB- Vacuum molding bag method.

This paper presents the selection of technology, technological and working procedures to construct the body of an electric guitar (Stratocaster type.). The used material for the electric guitar construction was carbon composite material offset by standardly used components. The carbon composite was chosen because of its excellent properties suitable for guitar construction. Described and used technologies were Manual Wet Lamination Technology and Vacuum Bag Molding (VBM) technology, and both are affordable and uncomplicated methods.
