[sdiy] preamp or other secret weapons for lo-fi ness a la BasicChannel/Deep Chord... broken filter like Pole?

[Grant Richter]

My friend Peder Hedman, whose stage name was "Lord Fuzzy", used to  
chop his shielded guitar cable into 10 to 12 pieces.

Then he would put it back together very poorly with rat tail splices,  
no solder and masking tape.

He could add Lo-Fi effects by just moving the cord around.

RF pickup, intermittent noise, complete drop outs, crackling,  
humming, buzzing...

Feedback could get really chaotic when audio vibrated the cord, like  
touching the amp cabinet.

I kid you not.

wiring with intrinsic power of less than 0.1 volt-ampere.
