In my opinion it is the drums that have the loudest raw sound, but if you connect your guitar to an amplifier then the sound will have increased.

The volume of the guitar determines on how hard the string is strummed, how much room it has to echo, and the environment the guitar is being played in. The loudest sound from a guitar will come when the string is strummed hard, allowed to ring freely with no other contact, and is played in a large, open room.
You do not state whether this is an acoustic or electric guitar. An acoustic guitar measures 65 db average to the player's ear. Of course this can vary dramatically, I do not think there is a record for the loudest acoustic guitar but think 80 db is a reasonable estimate. As far a electric guitar, there is no "real" limit related to electric guitar but rather to sound amplification. A 100W guitar amp can hit 140db. It is easy for a professional level P.A. system to achieve 160 db with good sound quality. It can get louder but at the cost of lower sound quality. Since sound this loud is considered painful and damaging to the listener's hearing, companies don't make systems louder than the "pain threshold" of 155db. The rock band "The Who" holds the record for loudest rock concert at a sustained 180db. They have since labeled themselves "the loudest rock band" as a result, it could be argued this honor be awarded to the P.A. system not the band.
An electric bass guitar is often used with acoustic ensembles, but there is the problem of a too-loud amplified bass guitar. This disturbs the sound of the whole ensemble. The bass has never been the loudest sounding instrument of that group.
Yes, the bridge of a guitar can alter the sound. If you change anything on a guitar it can change the overall tone of the sound it produces.
The loudest sound that we can hear is about 130 decibels.

The loudest sound ever recorded are rock concert speakers.
At a very close distance to the spider you hear the loudest sound.
I believe the Saturn V moon rocket was the loudest man made sound.

The loudest noise or sound is The Bloop because in 1997, U.S. NOAA heard a sound that is never been heard of that is also the loudest sound ever. The sound can cause from more than 5,000 km away from it's source. If it is an animal, it is louder and bigger than the loudest animal and the biggest animal in Earth.

194 dB (decibels) is the loudest sound on Earth ever. Some people say that the eruption of Krakatoa in 1883 was the loudest sound ever, being heard at 5,000 kilometers away! That eruption was around 180 dB!
