* InstrumentOfMurder: Johnny Banner wields a guitar/rifle.
* SwissArmyWeapon: The guitar plays perfectly... and shoots bullets. While that is only two functions, the sheer impossibility of a single device that both fires bullets accurately (without a trigger mechanism) AND does not need any more tuning that a normal guitar qualifies.
