These fruit-shaped instruments by Celentano Woodworks can help you combine your love of squishy green fruit and two-stringed instruments like the [avocado guitar](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/voltage-davinci). The [Etsy](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/arcade-clock)-sold creation is a unique blend of two seemingly unrelated things.

Talk about being an original! Celentano Woodworks' instruments are 100% functional, customizable pieces of playable art. My favorite is the heart baritone ukulele.

**Implications** - Advancements in digital music production have affected the adoption of analog musical instruments, but designers are sidestepping this obstacle by creating avant-garde instruments that challenge traditional notions of what a guitar, piano or drum set should look like. By adopting unusual forms, these [artistic instruments](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tame-impala) can appeal to a wider market.
