# Car-Inspired Musical Instruments The 'Fastback' Electric Guitar Concept Has a Ferrari-Like Design By Michael Hemsworth | Published 2019-09-05 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/electric-guitar-concept References: [tuvie](http://www.tuvie.com/fastback-electric-guitar-concept-is-inspired-by-the-shapes-of-a-ferrari/) & [davidfloresguitars](http://www.davidfloresguitars.com/) The 'Fastback' electric guitar concept is a vibrant musical instrument designed by David Flores Loredo that draws inspiration from [high-end vehicle aesthetics](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/california-corvette) for a demure finish. Featuring a candy apple red finish, the guitar is lacquered with a high-gloss polyurethane that gives it a demure finish that looks ready for the road. The guitar features a skillfully designed functionality that consists of handcrafted custom B&B Classic 61 Hot Humbuckers with split-coil, while the maple neck is paired with a [rosewood fingerboard](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rosewood-guitar). The body of the guitar features divots that help the aforementioned finish to shine brightly and give the instrument enhanced visual appeal. The 'Fastback' electric guitar concept maintains a [high-end aesthetic](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/shark-guitars) yet is designed with medium production in mind to keep the cost at a reasonable level. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.9/10 - Popularity: 44% | Activity: 5% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Car-inspired Musical Instruments:** Custom musical instruments inspired by the design aesthetics of high-end vehicles. - **Luxury-inspired Product Design:** Inspiration drawn from luxurious and high-end product design to create unique and eye-catching products. - **Handcrafted Customization:** Customization and handcrafted designs to create high-quality and visually appealing products. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Musical Instruments:** The musical instrument industry can explore the concept of creating custom products inspired by unique designs. - **Luxury Goods:** The luxury goods industry can explore partnership opportunities to create unique and exclusive product designs. - **Handcrafted Manufacturing:** Manufacturing companies can explore the use of handcrafted designs to add value to their products. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Futuristic Abstract Musical Instruments](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/zeta-electric-guitar.md) - [Carbon Fiber Smart Guitars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lava-me-3.md) - [High-End Electric Guitars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/player-plus-meteora.md) - [Recycled Guitar Prototypes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cardboard-guitar-1.md) - [Shreddable Steampunk Guitars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/steampunk-guitar.md) - [Reimagined High-End Guitars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/highend-guitar.md) - [Gold-Foil Pickup Guitars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/specialedition-guitar.md) - [Video Game-Like Sports Cars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/milano-vision-gt.md) - [Affordable Retro-Style Guitars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/retrostyle-guitar.md)
