Thanks for this one Matthew.

This might lead to PAS (Paper Acquisition Syndrome).

Sounds really fine.
Good to see that now also the soundboard and neck have been made of paper. Well, finally it's still wood. ;)

Martin, I believe that simple compressed wood fibres (+/- MDF) would also be too weak for the neck. I am suspecting he solved the problem with the right selection of glue (thinking of epoxy) which is binding whatever cellulose fibres.
