Notes

• Used in obtaining Hey Deze nuts for the Pagoda Quest.
• On May 28, 2006, this item was changed from being a usable item to a weapon. It was initially classified as a guitar, but was then changed to an axe. Using this item from the inventory before this date yielded the following messages:

• If you had a guitar pick:

With your pick in hand, you rock the house for a bit. Then the house steadies, and you go about your business.

• Without a pick:

You can pick your friends, and you can pick your nose, but you can't play this guitar without a pick.

Messages

• Weapon-Specific Hit Messages:

You play a lightning fast Malmsteen-esque MEEDLY MEEDLY MEEDLY riff. Your opponent writhes and takes X damage. SOCKO! WHAM! WHACK!

You play a song by Maiden. MAAAAIIIDEN! Your opponent sustains X damage from head-banging-induced whiplash. ZAP! BOINK! SOCKO!

You smash your perfectly good guitar against <it>. If <it> thinks <it> won't take X damage, <it> has got another thing coming. SMACK! ZAP! KAPOW!

Your heavy metal thunderrr guitarrr goes SKREEDLY MEEDLY MEEDLY WEEEOW SKRRRRANG for X damage. WHAM! ZAP! WHAMMO!

References

• The description is a reference to the lyrics of the Steppenwolf song Born to Be Wild, from their 1968 album Steppenwolf: "I like smoke and lightning / Heavy metal thunder / Racin' with the wind / And the feelin' that I'm under"/
• The Melee Damage +11 bonus is a reference to the rock band mockumentary This Is Spinal Tap.
• The line "You can pick your friends, and you can pick your nose, but you can't play this guitar without a pick" is a spoof of the common nose-picking saying: "You can pick your friends, and you can pick your nose, but you can't pick your friend's nose."
• Axe is a common slang term for an electric guitar.
• The majority of hit messages ("MEEDLY MEEDLY" etc) for this weapon come from Strongbad Emails, a cartoon from HomeStarRunner
• The hit message "If <it> thinks <it> won't take X damage, <it> has got another thing coming." appears to be a reference to the song You've Got Another Thing Comin' by heavy metal band Judas Priest.
