Colombian Parades Turns AK 47 Rifles Into Guitars
September 22, 2006 | Posted by bLavish as Artsy Fartsy at 12:10 pm | (55) Comments »

Parades, a guitar craftsman in Colombia, has turned weapons into guitars. Parades has branched out from the traditional electric guitar making methods & has turned shotguns and AK 47 rifles into guitars.
The craftsman stated, “They used to hit a target at 800 meters (yards). Now the target will just depend on the concert stage.”
Cute and yet still a little scary.

the best way to get a guitar like, would be to hav a custom one made by esp. it’ll cost about 3 or 4k but it’ll be american made and wood, plus u can customize the pick ups and controls. trying to get one of those things through customs would be a bitch, and trying to find the guy even harder.

to all them people who say its bad or “why glorify war anymore” the pople who made that made them out of REAL AK 47, the and the AK 47s that were used are now un capable of fireing a bullet so someone please tell me how this is bad? even if u dont like the design you gotta love the fact they will never kill anyone ever again soo go to hell if you dont like em
