How it goes.
You could try building a pickup, that's always fun and you get cool sounds and such. Also try adjusting your pick up heights for different tones.
You want to specifically mess with distortion try doing amp distortion, you get a lot of control there.

I was gonna do my own pick-up next. Possibly run through the output through old LED's for funsies.

Because then it would not be a guitar, it would be a keytar. The only time it is acceptable to play keytar is if: a. you are in dragonforce, be in the 80s, or c. a hot indie chick. How would I do string bends, play harmonics, or utilize over tones? Your pathetic digital "guitar" can do none of this and sounds like what its made of, plastic and shit. Wood, shape, pickups, and a thousand different things about the way a guitar is made make the guitar sound the way it does and each is different and special.
You know what is awesome? Having the skill to play an actual musical instrument. You know what's pathetic? Playing with a toy.
What you are suggesting is not only stupid but heresy of the highest form and I pray your soul is devoured by Satan himself and the excrement you then produce is flung into a pool of molten led and fire and the only solace you'll have is the screams of a thousand demons as they cheer for Satan and his metal band.


@Kain: Cool. I want to build a guitar. I plan to buy a few cheap kits for practice then go Brian May meet Eddie Van Halen and build something really wicked.

I've always wanted to build one out of plywood, because why not.
It'd be a hell of an original tone.

Depending on the composite it could sound cool. Those cheap things that come in boxes from mexico are made from it I think.

You got some deep seeded issues man o.0

You say keytar, I say, Evolution and perfection.

What is the point in buying 6 different guitars and tons of accessories, When you can get one flawless guitar where you can filter the output and the way it resonates and picks up the input?

Time to get with the times buddy.

Music does not rely on perfect.

It's the way people prefer FM synthesis over digital synthesis, the imperfections sound better.
