Frickin Laser Beams! What’s easier and less evil than mounting a laser beam to a shark? Building a laser guitar pickup. $10 dollar laser guitar pickup.

Crazy dumb idea number #42.

Last year I made a touch capacitive guitar pickup switching system. It was just a silly idea that turned into an actual working prototype. This time I’m briefly and casually exploring how we could use solar cells to capture the voltage changes produced by a laser-illuminated plucked string. I doubt it will evolve into anything useful but it was a fun project.

Thanks for watching. Take it easy.
