C-3PO Action Figure Case Guitar

Posted on by

Rock the Cantina with this Star Wars guitar. Made by Rainy Day Instruments, the body of this electric guitar is a repurposed C-3PO action figure case (who even knew they had another one besides the Vader case?) The case can still open up and talk (why didn’t the Darth Vader one talk? too scary probably).

While threepio is not exactly known for his smooth melodic speech pattern, that never stopped anyone from succeeding in music *cough* Bob Dylan *cough*. Well, now that I’ve insulted the greatest lyricist of a generation, let’s throw another damper on your day- the one of a kind guitar is no longer available and there doesn’t appear to be any video of it in action. Boooo. Perhaps contact RDI above to make you another one if you want or just talk to your local luthier extraordinaire. (via technabob)

Rock the undead and fight zombie hordes with this crazy custom guitar by Travis Stevens. This maple necked Strat style guitar has a distressed finish, bullet casings, a blood splattered pickguard, a grenade and zombies!

For the more guitar technical readers it also has: blocked tremolo, new active Seymour Duncan Blackout singles, shielded cavities, locking Fender tuners, mini toggle switch to activate jumpers on back of Middle and Bridge pickup (signal boost).

That’s some scary stuff. Yet another really cool custom made guitar from Travis (who also did the Lite Brite and Han Solo in Carbonite guitars). Kind of a Walking Dead homage there. But how does it sound? Let’s roll the videotape:

If you watch the video, he says that he’s going to sell the guitar. So we tracked down the eBay listing! Zombie Apocalypse Guitar (that link goes to ALL of his guitar listings). Starting bid if you want to buy this custom job is $749.

The guitar uses EMG style pickups. Want to hear how it sounds? Actual playing starts at 3:00 in this video:

Well that’s either Smoke on the Water or Cat Scratch Fever- your choice, they’re the same damn song. He’s playing the Mario theme starting at 7:30, it’s pretty much mandatory with this guitar. But really, not bad. The guitar can be yours for about $1000. (via obvious winner)

Geeky luthier Travis Stevens has created the world’s coolest guitar ever (of the week) with his Han Solo in Carbonite Electric Guitar. While Travis does make guitars like this to sell, you’re too late as Ben Moody (Evanescence, We Are the Fallen) already bought it! Also, he’s sleeping with your girlfriend while you’re at work. Sucks for you.
