Man Turns His Dead Uncle’s Skeleton Into Guitar

Freelancers Teach Online Classes For Income During Coronavirus Pandemic

A Tampa, Florida artist by the name of Prince Midnight created a full functioning guitar using the bones of his beloved uncle Filip. He called it "Skelecaster."

Filip tragically passed away in 1996 after getting into a motorcycle accident in Greece. So Midnight had the bones flown to Florida from Greece.

“After 20 years, he ended up in a cemetery my family had to pay rent on. Like, literally in a wooden box,” he told HuffPost. “It’s a big problem in Greece because the Orthodox religion doesn’t want people cremated.”

Prince sharing a YouTube video of himself playing the instrument and wrote: "The skeleton belonged to my beloved Uncle Filip. He was a metal head and guitar player in life, and now he continues to shred in death!”

Check out his video below.
