Rob Zombie's guitar player used to have a body that they filled with maybe calf blood? can't remember for sure. There was some sort of valve so it could pour out too.

I remember seeing this on some TV show years ago....I'm 99.9 percent sure the bassist had it's twin.

Looked and found no pics.

I think this is the strangest question asked on TB, at least it's a change from the usual 'fenders are crap/great' yawn fest. well done to you sir.

Which liquid is best for metal?

I'm with @DavC and @The BurgerMeister but I'd want really long straw or siphon tube for when my camelback does dry. Nothing ruins a night like running out of vodka mid-set...

Liquid nitrogen is...cooler...

This guy forgot to put the water in his.

Very much doable:

More on that.

Once saw a clear Plexiglas acoustic guitar filled with water and a goldfish swimming around inside.I don't remember where.

More on that.

I thought this was what I was attaching but I guess I grabbed another vid. Love the bit about the first batch exploding in cold climate!

Fill it with mineral oil and you dont have to worry about the electronics.

I would hope there would be criminal penalties for doing such a terrible thing.

And so would I. Then again, they are ungodly heavy.

I want to know which tonewater is the best. Tap. Purfied. Mountain spring. Atlantic, Pacific. Grape filtered.

If I add sea salt to tap tonewater, can I get similar tone as Pacific? Would an audience be able to tell, or are we really just talking about differences between purists? Does Amazonian tonewater sustain as well as Salt Lake City tonewater? If I melted a polar icecap will my tonewater sound retro? Does Martian tonewater sound psychedelic?

In Blind tests no one can HEAR a difference, but many reported being able to taste a difference.

Might be interesting to include a good drainage valve so that you can replace the fluid to change your tone.
Mercury for heavy metal, water/oil for blues/jazz etc, helium for funk.

The list of essential axes for any arsenal just got longer by one.

I think I'd use an Etch A Sketch, instead. That way, the 2 white knobs could also double for your Volume and Tone controls.
