    I would liked to have seen Jimmy Fallon’s custom stained glass guitar on the list. He calls it the “Gathedral,” google it.

    Um, that’s Kofi Annan, former UN secretary General holding that AK-47 Guitar. I think that one might just be fake. He doesn’t strike me as a rock enthusiast.

    There are other pictures of Kofi Annan holding the AK-47 guitar at different angles, so I assume it is real:

    “The rifle came from the disarmament efforts in Colombia and is one of several such instruments crafted by Colombian musician Cesar Lopez, who worked with the UN Office on Drugs and Crime in Colombia to raise awareness of violence.”

    @ yardbird: isnt a “bass guitar” still a guitar?

  17. stanleysteamerofcleveland

    @yardbird

    It’s a bass guitar, so I think it still counts.

    Also, that clear fender isn’t so unusual or creative, there are tons of clear guitars out there. I like the Kramer ones w/ clear bodies and metal necks from the 70s!

  18. Hugo
