Abstract: The electric guitar was created in the mid-1920s by Lloyd Loar, using single-coil pickups made with movable coils and magnets. These pickups revolutionized the market with the phenomena of electromagnetism and created a range of new products that are present in all fields of music. This type of material can be found in electric guitars, bass guitars, acoustic guitars with amplification circuitry and pickups, and other stringed instruments. In the current scenario, the guitar market revolves around major companies such as Ibanez, Gibson, Yamaha, and Fender, which can be inaccessible to some people. Additionally, the market for components like electric pickups for musical instruments is still overpriced, resulting in high costs for consumers. The market includes companies like Fender, mentioned earlier, Fishman, Seymour Duncan, and EMG. The LOAR project, named as a tribute to the guitar's creator, aims to assemble two fully functional guitars to demonstrate the operation of electric pickups through electromagnetism. In addition to encouraging research and nurturing people's curiosity, the low cost of the project was also considered by using alternative materials to make the assembly process accessible to individuals with the same interest. This includes using low-cost wood and imported materials with lower costs for guitar assembly, as well as recycling certain parts of the body. In addition to the instrument production initiative, the project also seeks personal development in the field of musical arts, prototyping, and creativity, where everyone can be inspired to create their own content and encourage others, creating a chain of learning.
