[Electronicsclub] Help on guitar project

[Joe Staursky]

Would anyone be interested in working on a guitar? I have a couple of guitars I would like to work on/upgrade and one is a pawnshop special that i don't mind tearing apart. I'm really just interested in applying what I learned from my ECE classes to the guitar. This site http://www.guitarelectronics.com/category/wiring_resources_guitar_wiring_diagrams.guitar_wiring_mods/ shows some projects we could possibly work on; although we could also come up with our own. I have only taken ECE205 and ECE261 so my knowledge in ECE is pretty entry level and I would be more confident if someone could help guide me or help me understand how the electronics work. I have been playing guitar for around 6-7 years so I'm knowledgeable on the guitar and know what kind of sound/tone I'm looking for. I have a soldering iron and the spare parts needed to work on this, so if your interested let me know.

P.S Here is some more info on how electric guitars work: http://entertainment.howstuffworks.com/electric-guitar1.htm
