There is no way the speakers work though? But imagine wiring them up.. Is it even feasible I wonder


The speakers did work. So did the guitar.[1]

'MTV: So wait, the whole thing actually worked?

Gibson: You bet your sweet... George -- unfortunately -- doesn’t like things that don’t work. I have in the past built him props that I thought were just supposed to be props, and then he goes, "Okay, plug it in now."'

George Miller simply assumed it would work; and as a result, the end result was actually a functional guitar and speaker system.

Of all the effects in that movie, the ONE that I was sure was CGI was the flames coming out of the guitar.


Why would you think they couldn't work? My ultimate dream car was to own a real semi-trailer with that would open up like the old Optimus Prime toy so that when unfolded it would reveal a huge sound system ready to go in a matter of minutes.


idk I thought there wouldn't be enough power to drive them long enough, but apparently...
