i was listening to Alvin Lucier's _Music on a Long Thin Wire_ and i got
the idea that it might be possible to run the output from MOTM modules
down guitar strings (Solder the tip of a plug to an aligator clip attached
to the string by the guitar head, solder ground to a aligator clip
attached to the bridge) and that perharps the fluctuating signal along
the wire would cause the magnets in the pickups to bounce around and thus
generate a signal out through the guitar's jack.
Questions:
Will this hurt the MOTM?
Will this hurt the guitar?
Could this harm somebody holding the guitar? (i was going to play some
led zepplin but i got a huge shock when i touched the strings!)
Should I put a resistor in here someplace?
Is there a way to electrically seperate the current running down the
guitar string from the MOTM so that doing something weird like dropping
the guitar in a bathtub full of saltwater would not hurt the MOTM? Or
would it not get hurt anyway?
Is this how spring reverb works? (now with string reverb!)
thanks,
Celeste
