Kids’ Electronic Rock Guitar Shirt
This cool shirt is actually a wearable guitar! Each button on the neck is a major chord so just turn on the mini amp and rock out! There are no pre-canned songs here–you make the music yourself. All the major chords are recorded from a real electric guitar so the sounds are right on. The mini amp can be clipped to your belt and puts out plenty of sound. You can play with the amp to adjust the sound just like a real guitar. Sorry to all the older Rock Gods out there but sizes don’t run too large so unless you are still built like a teenager, you might be out of luck. These shirts are currently out of stock but be sure to bookmark the page to get your order in once they are available again. Source: Think Geek
