Re: circuit to control resistance with an electric guitar? -

I am looking for ways to use my electric guitar to control a color organ or other lights & similar devices. Can someone point me to a schematic for a circuit that takes the signal from an electric guitar's magnetic pickup and translates that to a resistance which varies depending on how hard the guitar's strings are picked? Are there any circuits that translate the signal coming from the guitar into a resistance or capacitance that varies based on the note being played (the pitch / frequency of the string being plucked)? Any pointers or advice would be most appreciated... |

in front of your amp and plug in some lights.
I'm sure you can get something like that at a local music store or party
hire place. It all depends on how elaborate you want to get (it'll be
proportional to the $$ spent obviously).
Also google for "Colour organ" (or if you'se are a yank: "color") as
this is a pretty common DIY project and I'm sure you'll find tons of
circuits and kits in all parts of the world.
