Subject: Noises through pickups
I've heard in divers places about adding sonic
material to loops by playing various things through
the pickups of a guitar - vibrators, cordless drills,
etc. My particular interest is in using cassette
players; I know that Torn sensei does some of this,
and I think others on the list have mentioned it.
Anyone care to share experiences, techniques, caveats
in this area?

Nels Cline creates some amazing textures by using a Fuzz Factory and one of those Smokey amps -- the little cigarette pack things -- and feeding it back into the pickups of his Jazzmaster. I think he takes a second output from a volume pedal so that the guitar signal still goes through to his amplifier.
No, really, I don't stand at the edge of the stage and stare at guitarist's pedalboard. Really.
