Today looking for input for a new project related to musical instruments i found what i think is a big leap forward to give musicians in the search for a personal sound an alternative to electronics. This a MIT student that device a way to sense the specific oscillations of the wood of the guitar. So, if you change the soundboard of the guitar (as you do with the chameleon guitar) you change the sound of it. As an extra, the soundboard becomes a platform for experimentation with different materials like water, oil or whatever you want to put inside the special container under a modified soundboard.
