I first thought this idea at 1994 but it is its chance to publicise it now.
I think guitar bodies are heavy and uncomfortable designs.
I think a multi equal size parts , manually configured robotic arm is the answer.
This is not space wars robot , it is the easiest zig zag form which made with space frame which joints are screw tighten.
It can easily be compacted or adjusted to the standing playing or adjusted to your posture on a sit or lye.

Best ,

Hard to follow, your english is a little broken there Mustafa- I believe you mean something like Buckminster fullers Geodesic domes?
