I thought those of you who are into audio hacking (such as myself), would be interested in something as amazing as this. It was made by Jerri Ellsworth, self taught-female-hacker extraordinaire.

She took a cheap Bass guitar and modded it with Piezos to be controlled by the C64. It's using the original 6581 SID and it able to convert the guitar notes into the different wave forms. Square wave has been done a million times - especially with Atari Punk Console pedals, but i've never heard triangle or "noise" channels where it actually sounds like a video game!

You instantly came to mind when I saw this. It reminded me that you mentioned you were working on some video game chip-synths.
