The AK-47 Guitar

這是一把由AK-47改装而成的依班娜電吉他，另外一把是左手電吉他可以正常演奏。

在奪人性命的武器上演奏出治愈心靈的樂章，或許既是對戰爭的警醒，又是對和平的嚮往？

約翰·昆西·亞當斯曾經說過: 我必須學習政治和戰爭，這樣我的兒子才能學習數學、商業和農業，這樣他們的兒子才能學習詩歌、繪畫和音樂。

但我寧可想讓我的女兒可以學習詩歌、繪畫和音樂。“當需要音樂時，它就在那裡，而且是有目的的。”

音樂的一個好處是，當它擊中你時，你不會感到痛苦，但槍的子彈打中你會感到痛苦。

Former U.S. national security adviser Amb. Robert O’Brien said that “when millions of Taiwanese defend their homeland armed with AK47 rifles, the CCP leaders may reassess whether to invade Taiwan.”

John Quincy Adams said, I have to study politics and war so that my sons can study mathematics, commerce and agriculture, so their sons can study poetry, painting and music.

But I want my daughter to be able to study poetry, painting and music.“When music is needed, it’s really there and it serves a purpose.”

One of the great things about music is that when it hits you, you won’t feel pain, but you will feel pain when the bullet of the gun hits you.

Raise the AK47, it is better to choose music…

I can see that this guitar would appeal to certain folks. The only thing I wonder about is whether it can handle that tremolo — it looks too narrow.

This golden AK47 guitar is the product of fine craftsmanship by Jimmy DiResta, who has featured on Discovery Channel, HGTV, DIY, and FX and is the owner of a successful Youtube channel. On his website he describes himself as an “experienced television personality as an on camera designer/builder host.”

He designed and built the guitar, also know as the Gattar, for Wyclef Jean and based on the design of the AK47. The video below shows a sped up video of the manufactuing process from start to finish. DiResta cuts and shapes blocks of wood to the design of the AK47 before assembling it all onto a custom cut guitar and spray painting it gold.

The trigger acts as a whammy bar and on the clip of the gun is an open chord fretless mini guitar. Other knobs control the pickup volume and tone as you would expect on a normal guitar.
