Magnetic Guitar

magneticguitar.jpg

The weird thing is, electric guitars aren’t themselves electric. They are magnetic. You don’t plug the guitar into the outlet, or ever change its batteries. The amplifier is the thing that is electric. It picks up the oscillations of the magnetic fields of each string through the humbucker and pick up coils and amplifies them. With electricity. But you my friend, are rocking a magnetic guitar.

  1. Not sure what kind of guitar that is, but it looks like my first electric lady. A Teisco del Ray…..oh she felt good in my arms.

  2. It looks more like a slot machine than a guitar, to me.
