Guitars made of liquid.

Electric Guitars have been built from many things

Wood 
Metal
Perspex
Carbon fibre
Etc

Has anyone seen a hollow one filled with a liquid,  maybe water,  maybe oil?

Wonder how that would impact the sound, whether the electronics could be adapted to capture the different sound "vibrations".  

Can't see it catching on though.   Maybe Muse would use it.

Was it Rob Zombie whose guitar was like a flask filled with the lambs' blood he would drink and spit all over the audience?

Got to love a bit of death metal.... 

Edit: yes it was. How lovely. https://images.app.goo.gl/CDDGRhS7qcVAPHbE6

John 5 has one.  Looks awesome, and extremely heavy.

Would it sound better when the tide is in or out?

Like most things probably, when it’s high.

Reckon this qualifies as more liquid than a hollow plastic body
Guitary bit is at around 1m 44s but it's all worth a viewing.

Does butter count? There's loads of mysterious guitars around made out of that stuff, according ebay sales blurb at least.

No, but at this time of the year, I've seen several Guitar Cakes which are works of art. 

Some edible beauties here:-

Perfect for noodling on?

While my guitar gently seeps.

Does anyone remember those platform shoes whose soles were filled with water and a few goldfish?
The cruelty aspect of them always appealed to me.
Ah, the wonderful world of fashion!

Plays like MELTED butter!

Perfect opportunity for real signature guitars. Make them out of the said players' dried faeces.

Kirk's blue telecaster one was used on the encores for the Cunning Stunts DVD.

Looks great under the lights.
