The people at The Painted Player Guitar Co have designed a yellow submarine guitar, which draws inspiration the 1968 animation feature of Yellow Submarine written and performed by The Beatles. The guitar's body is hand painted a sunshine yellow and shaped, as the name suggests, like a yellow submarine.
The delicately painted instrument features four hand-designed 'windows' which the four Beatles -- John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison, Ringo Starr -- can be seen peering out from. The neck of the guitar complements its bold body with a light wood, and is completed with a blast of color ranging from blue, purple and green at the head.
The yellow submarine guitar, part of the company's 'Artistic series,' is best suited for lovers of custom guitars, classic rock enthusiasts, or collectors of one of a kind merchandise.
