Whee! I just checked my web server stats, and the bandwidth has gone through the roof. I got 1.4GB of traffic in the last day or two, and I usually get less than that in a month.
Thanks to whoever posted it! I just need to get slashdotted now so I can be really 1337

So, now as a scientist, you need to find out why . . .

Hey Steve,
You've probably already thought of this but since I didn't read the entire thread I'll post it anyway. Why dont you make a guitar amp drsstc!!? Now that would be SWEEET! I'm pretty sure it would sound awesome not to mention look awesome.

Yeah that might be true but then again a bass guitar is lower frequency and a guitar in general has that kind of sound that at least "seems" like it could be reproduced on a drsstc or at least on a regular sstc pretty well. Of course if it can play midi sounds from a keyboard then it should have no problem doing a guitar. hell you can have guitar midi or convert it to midi. Or um something.

I think it is quite possible to hook a guitar up to the thing, using electronics similar to what the old Roland guitar synths had. It should reproduce chords too. They would sound pretty distorted, but that might even be a bonus, since I'd only use it for playing metal anyway. >_<
The real problem is interference from the coil getting picked up by the guitar and making it unusable. The electronics inside guitars are very sensitive and tend to be poorly screened. So I reckon to get it working with decent sized sparks, the guitarist would need to sit inside a Faraday cage with a fibre optic link between the guitar and the coil. I'm not sure I can be bothered.
