Answer:

- The guitar was smashed into pieces by Pete Townshend.

Explanation:

A sentence written in passive voice pays more emphasis to the object instead of the subject as it(subject) becomes the recipient of the action in the sentence rather than the doer.

In the given question, the above mentioned sentence would be the passive voice of the given sentence as the object 'the guitar' replaces the subject 'Pete Townshed' which implies that the doer is receiving the action and the object is being emphasized in the sentence instead of the subject. Thus, it justifies the above claim as the subject is being acted upon.
