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 really cool. Sounds like a built in Last Gasp Lab Misty Cave!

Apparently, it lights up, but that's about all.

I've actually been looking into embedding a voltage meter into a guitar, and I think it can be made to work if it's measuring millivolts.

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?

Only guitar for now, but I'm eyeing a Charvel Skatecaster SK-1 for my more sludgey/heavy stuff.
