#Argentine Farmer Makes Giant Guitar With 7, 000 Trees Extreme guitar tribute to Argentinian farmers wife. Pedro Martin Ureta, a 70-year old Argentine farmer from General Levalle, has used 7, 000 cypress and eucalyptus trees to create a giant guitar in memory of his late wife, Graciela, who died in 1977, when she was only 25. He consulted a number of landscapers, but none of them were interested in such a daring endeavor, so the farmer just had to do it himself#Planting the tree guitar required a family effort. His kids would stand in a row three meters apart, and the farm hands would plant trees in those exact spots, after which they re-formed the line in another position and more trees were planted. Most of the guitar, including the body and star-shaped hole were designed using cypress trees, as for the strings the bluish tones of eucalyptus trees were used.
