Music doesn't lie. If there is something to be changed in this world, then it can only happen through music.

Life is music. It has been theorized that the actual structure of our physical reality is contructed of an infinite series of vibrating strings. This is called "String Theory". Perhaps this is where we get the phrase "bad vibes"? Another thoery: before there was physical matter, there was the vibration from sound which lead to the "big bang". Some believe that all sound and music will exist forever in the echoes of eternity.
So:
Music created the Universe
Music is the Universe
Music will outlive the Universe
Of course, that's all based on a bunch of theories.
Guitar is usually a six-stringed instrument with a fretted fingerboard normally two octaves in length. Playing the guitar involves strumming one hand rhythmically near the bridge while simultaneously fretting on the fingerboard to create a melody.
Every guitar has a neck, a body, and a head, just like a human being. Humans also have seven major energy points, or "chakras", that are aligned from our pelvic region to the top of our heads. They are, from bottom to top: Root, Sacral, Solar Plexus, Heart, Throat, Brow, Crown. The interesting and relevant fact is that these "chakras" correspond with the seven major colors, and they also correspond with the seven major musical notes. This chart shows the relationships:
