Every video of someone doing this online is usually accompanied by some other effect, so it's hard to tell what it actually sounds like. Usually kind of chimey drones.
A few years ago, I built a Yuri Landman White Eagle tailed bridge guitar (with ILFer Phantasmagorovich too actually) with a pickup behind the bridge, and it essentially emphasizes harmonics. So yeah - super chimey and awesome when you fret at positions that have lots of natural harmonics. The trick with the Yuri Landman design though is that the length of the strings behind the bridge is exactly half the length from the 12th fret to the bridge, so they give you exactly a third octave (above the notes at the twelfth fret) if you play them open. So they ring and chime really sympathetically to the rest of the guitar. Pretty awesome!
^^^That sounds amazing to me. I thought about building one of those...hmmm

This course, a perpetual alternation of determining what is true, and then setting aside this determining, constitutes, strictly speaking, the steady everyday life and activity of perpetual consciousness, a consciousness which fancies itself to be moving in the realm of truth.
Decided to make use of some AVRI Jazzmaster pickups I had. I had seen two Danocasters setup like this, and I've felt that the bridge pickup on Jags is always a bit lacking so a Jazzmaster pickup there would be cool. Definitely fattened things up a bit.
Those are some right purty git-fiddles. Where'd you get the pickguard for the bottom guitar?
