It looks like they did a good job making it, but didn't account for the lack of pressure in the luggage compartment of a jet. The pressure differential between the pressurized cocaine packet and the depressurized luggage compartment was too great, and wisps of air, carrying white powder, came out of the guitar.
I wonder how they made it? It looks like a fiberglass shell that's been painted. If they use a mold to crank these out, now customs knows what to look for in the future. |

Now if they could make the guitar vibrate they would have the greatest hat trick ever! Sex, drugs and rock and roll!

Mediocre smuggling effort IMHO.
My favorite was maybe 8 or 10 years ago, dudes in the golden triangle mixed heroin with a bit of glue and pressed it into decorative shapes and shipped it as ceiling moldings. Hiding in plain sight. Nice try ... except that I saw it on the evening news...

Unfortunately, we'll never know about the really good ones that work.

I dunno...Keith Emerson had a ribbon controller for his giant Moog that shot flames, plus, he could play the shit out of it to boot.

This is my first post and I have to say the process is more cumbersome than I expected.
In keeping with the gustatory theme common here, I think that the filling looks like cream cheese or perhaps a puffball mushroom. Also, it should be noted that everything inside the fuselage of a pressurized aircraft is equally pressurized, including the luggage compartment. It would be pretty tough on shipped animals if not. |

Cool. I didn't realize that. Makes sense, what with the round shape and all.

Welcome Diaphone Jim!
Is that username a play on Diamond Jim?

why black?
what i wonder in first place is why they decided to build a BLACK guitar, for hiding WHITE powder.
if they would have decided in favour of the - much more beautiful - white stratocaster nobody would have seen a small leak. amateurs!! |

It comes from an interest in Diaphone Air Horns, big ones (Types F and G) for fog signals and smaller ones (Types B and C) for fire department and emergency alerting systems.
