I'm pretty sure Mastodon or Gwar would play them though.

Not true at all, it's mainly humidity and radiator level temperatures that are going to affect wood and neither of these will have any effect on the rock at all. Considering the material used on the body looks quite highly metamorphosed, it's quite likely been to quite a great depth in the Earth's interior so has probably recrystalised under great pressure so is most probably quite dense. As such the likelihood of small humidty variations causing water to enter its structure is quite low.

That being said, a truss rod would be of no purpose as the tension of the strings wouldn't cause the neck to bend and the set up looks pretty poor already!

Cool idea though!
