This is just a musing really...
A guitarist friend of mine is having a guitar built for him by another friend of mine, and was interested in having some out-of-the-ordinary functionality.
We have already toyed with a momentary 'kill switch' on his board and so thought it might be useful to have one on the guitar too/ instead, and then he decided it might be fun to have a Boss Delay pedal built in behind the bridge, so he could manipulate the controls without having to bend down like he does at the moment.
While my mind was meandering along the road of odd-things-to-put-on-a-guitar I wondered how easy it might be to create a microphonic pickup type effect, that could be switched in and out.
The first thought was to just get a smallish dynamic capsule and see where that took me. Mount it somewhere below the scratchplate and experiment.
Any wise words before I begin carving up mics, would be gratefully received...!
