Instant ramen… it keeps co-eds alive for 59-cents a day and provides a week’s worth of sodium in one convenient package. Now, the cost-effective noodles are here to bring some rock and roll.
Artem Mayer created the Ramen Noodle Guitar. Using 36 packs of ramen noodles, and 5 liters of polyester resin — the guitar may take a lot longer to make than a cup of noodles, but it’s completely handcrafted and fully-functional.
Rock on, broke people!
Jawbreakers… they’re not just a dentist’s nightmare anymore. Now, the giant impenetrable candies will rock anybody within earshot.
Enter, the Jawbreaker Guitar. Brought to us by Burls Art, the Flying V-shaped guitar consists of eight giant jawbreakers and epoxy. The end result… the sweetest licks available.
See how it’s made below, and stay until the end for a jam session.
We recently found a guitar that was made from the same plants as tequila. Keeping with the philosophy that alcohol begets great music, Bushmills and Lowden have teamed up to create the Whiskey Barrel Guitar.
The Bushmills x Lowden F-50 was handcrafted from the wood of whiskey barrels, along with ancient bog oak, and reclaimed redwood. The result… An homage to guitar-making, music and whiskey-drinking. Please, do not lick the guitar.

Agave is the plant responsible for making delicious life-affirming tequila. Now, the multi-tasking plant has been used to make a guitar.
The Cuervo x Fender Agave Stratocaster Guitar was a collaboration between the liquor and guitar-making giants. It’s an effort to show the versatility and sustainability of the plant, while cementing tequila’s place in music history.
See how it’s done below…
Nothing says, ‘rock and roll,’ quite like a can of chopped pork and ham. The makers of The SPAMP knows this.
The fully-functional pre-amplifer/practice amp is made from an actual Spam can. Assuming that all of the pork-parts were removed first, the SPAMP contains Pro Audio Grade Components, including a Discrete JFET Amplifier.
It also has a few effect settings such as ‘Fried’ (even harmonics for a warm fuzz), ‘Grilled’ (odd harmonics for a meatier overdrive distortion), and ‘Chilled’ (no distortion, just the warm tone of JFET amplification). ‘Spice’ and ‘Heat’ control the harshness of the distortion and the post-distortion signal level respectively. Plug in and spam all of your friends.
