Go see Mad Max: Fury Road. It is great IMO.
The best part is the Guitar Man/Bugle Boy.
He's on a converted missile launcher with 6 or 8 taiko drummers playing a double neck, flame throwing guitar.
Who built the guitar was my first question. You don't get a close look at it, but the head stock, to me, looks like a Rickenbacker.
Check it out here.

Re: Mad Max: Fury Road, Who built the guitar?
Its not a rickenbacher.
It looks to be cobbled together from bits and pieces. The front of the headstock has a couple pipes or tubes over it, and the tuner buttons are spark plugs. Hardtail strat bridge and three singles on the guitar side.
If I had known a guitar was needed for this movie, I would have done anything to get the job.
Im a huge Mad Max fan, so this movie was a long time coming for me. The wife and I were looking at buying an "Interceptor" replica recently, but we've decided to build one from scratch (with a functioning blower, not a fake one!).
