Re: Noise Guitar & Related Conceptual Interpretations
Recently discovered that my brother totally disassembled a guitar in the garage and just left it there (a black Strat copy with "Sawtooth" on the headstock), decided to turn it into a noise device. Currently I have it set up with the intent to put some springs on it and turn the neck pickup cavity into a shaker box. Anyone who's built similar devices that can offer some advice on construction? I've got a flat piezo element affixed in the bridge cavity, but I also have the pick guard with all the electronics still affixed if actual guitar pickups are better for spring abuse. Want a device that can just blast out harsh noise with some distortion and minimal other effects, so the priority is chunky feedback and rumble.
I've got a friend who will be doing the actual electronics work, so I can probably get it rigged up to switch between both sound sources if I want to keep the shaker integrated.

Even if you took a few years and learned all the chords you'd still have a limited number of options. If you ignore the chords your options are infinite and you can master guitar playing in one day. - David Fair

Re: Noise Guitar & Related Conceptual Interpretations
the more the better.. if you're not going to sting it up, just have a bunch of springs sticking out, piezos will work fine...but if you want to string it up, add the pickups too.The Mysterious Creep wrote: ↑Wed Apr 03, 2024 1:50 pm Recently discovered that my brother totally disassembled a guitar in the garage and just left it there (a black Strat copy with "Sawtooth" on the headstock), decided to turn it into a noise device.

Sad but true. Seems like Special Interests is really the last bastion of Noise forums now.
