Sorry, What I spose I meant was,,,,,er.......ah.......plop. Really, what I was after was not neccesarily guitar exclusive, but more along the lines of the more ethereal sounds of ambient, as opposed to the more well-defined and structured (at least to me) types of sounds that a guitar usually makes. I've played with both, but prefer the more abstract uses of the guitar....I rarely actually "play" one.....I've used it as a microphone, diddled with various nooks and crannies on it to get those clicky-bendy noises that people HATE to hear out of an expensive guitar (mine's shite) and such........placing a remote control against the pickups and pressing buttons makes for some odd sounds as well..... > >I'm puzzled at that one just a little.
