How to Build a Mini LEGO Guitar

The LEGO building system has the flexibility to create anything you can imagine, including guitars. A guitar will require some specific LEGO pieces, but when they're complete they can be placed around the LEGO people figurines to create your own version of a toy rock band.

Things You'll Need

LEGO pieces and plates
Minifig hammer
Minifig magnifying glass
LEGO switch arm
Scotch tape (optional)
LEGO vent pieces

Instructions

- 1
  Pull a round 2-by-2 stud plate to serve as the body of the guitar.
- 2
  Insert the hammer or magnifying glass into the end of a disconnected lever arm. This piece becomes the neck, with the three prongs of the lever becoming the head and tuning pins.
- 3
  Attach the head to the guitar base. For example, if you're using a magnifying glass, attach that to a stud on the base. If you have a hammer, it will fit into the groove on the back. If the hammer doesn't stay in place, tape it down.
- 4
  Place the vent piece on the front of the guitar so it forms strings. Attach that to a single-stud piece, or the bottom of the 90-degree piece.
