The C3PO Electric Guitar is an instrument made for those who have an undying passion both for music as well as the 'Star Wars' franchise. It helps if their favorite character is the bumbling golden robot as well. It was made using Classic C3PO collectors case for a vintage toy. According to the creator, the case can still open and talk! Perhaps that feature can be incorporated into a musical number.
Made by Marc Potter of Rainy Day Instruments, an Etsy shop based in Oslo, California, the C3PO Electric Guitar is completed with a Behringer maple neck. The designer shows that just about anything can be converted into a musical instrument. He has created instruments out of bedpans, briefcases and more.
