These beautifully pimped out guitars were inspired by the popular video games Guitar Hero and Rock Band. The limited edition guitars which were put out by ArtGuitar were hand-painted with familiar images of famous rock icons.
There is one guitar featuring the familiar heavily made up faces of members of the hard rock band Kiss. Another instrument pays homage to classic country rock band Lynyrd Skynyrd and a third guitar features imagery associated with heavy metal legend Ozzie Osborne in a black and white background. Right now, the controllers are only available for Play Station 2.
