There are two piece chocolate molds that can be used to make a 3D casting.
One normally fills them with tempered chocolate and lets the excess drain.
When the chocolate hardens, the mold is opened and you get a hollow, cast
chocolate item -- think hollow Easter Bunny. There are also flat molds like
Hans showed you.

In any case, remember that you will have to temper the chocolate or your
guitar will turn out dull and get gray spots on it. This process is called
"blooming" and is caused by the cocoa butter coming to the surface of the
chocolate. If the guitar is just a minor part of your display and you don't
want to temper the chocolate, you might considers using chocolate flavored
confectioner's coating. It's not nearly as delicious as real chocolate, but
it doesn't have to be tempered.
