.. . . but I'm looking for a chocolate mold of a guitar - preferably an
electric one. I've Googled it with not much luck. I found one electric
guitar, but they don't sell the mold; only the finished product. There's
one on ebay, but it's not electric.
Any suggestions??

Are you looking for a 3D, hollow mold?

I'm not sure what you mean. Just a mold to make a chocolate guitar

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.

I did not know this. Truth be told, I've never "made" chocolate before. I
think I'll have to do a bit more research before I just melt chocolate and
pour it into the mold, huh?
(And a 2-D one that Hans shows me is what I was looking for. That was hard
enough to find!)

I am surprised with such unique request for chocolate moulds.
A chocolate mould for electric guitar is difficult the obtain. Unless
you have a specimen of that instrument and make an impression on a
mouldable or plastic material which can be hardened to set the
design on.
But I do not see the significance of the preciseness of just using an
electric guitar. If you understand the instrument even an acoustic
guitar can be made into an electric adding such accessories to it.
Therefore if you can find a mould for an acoustic guitar and modifying
the facade of the cast guitar by attaching a shaped moulding chocolate
to a approximate the real instrument; then that would be easier.
I do not understand either that why the chocolate electric guitar
should be as real as possible. Are you planning to place guitar
strings on it and play
the tunes of the Bruce Springsteet<g>?.

I want to make it as a gift for someone who plays guitar and he plays mostly
electric guitar. I wasn't that thrilled with how the acoustic guitar molds
looked. It would just make it that much better. And it's not Bruce
Springsteen, but you're pretty damn close!!

We have a chain of stores in my area called BulkBarn. It is a store than
sells bulk foods. It is a great place to get baking supplies and they rent
and sell molds. You might be able to find a bulk food store in your area
that does the same thing.
