Rocker Yaago Anax believes that his uncle Filip would be "smiling up from hell" after his bones were used a part of the instrument.

Anax has managed to put the guitar through his uncle's ribcage and connect to the hip bones to successfully play music with the skeleton.

The rocker admits that it took a lot of "trial and error" to make the guitar workable.

He explained: "It took a couple of weeks, because I drilled into a vertebrae and snapped it - there was a good deal of trial and error."

Filip was killed in a car crash during the 1990s and Anax decided to pay a fitting tribute to the relative who got him into heavy metal music when his family couldn't pay rent on the cemetery he was buried in.

Yaago explained: "I got the box of bones and didn't know what to do at first. Bury them? Cremate them? Put them in the attic? All seemed like poor ways to memorialise someone who got me into heavy metal.

"So I decided to turn Uncle Filip into a guitar."
