Re: nifty little device on guitar neck



I think it was a homebrew device that is basically a pickup mounted on a plate that can be flipped out of the way or flipped down to hover over the strings allowing him to amplify the section of the string behind the fretted notes.

Cheers,
Jon

Hi folks

Does anyone know what this nifty (?) little device is (and does) that you mount on the uppermost part of a guitar neck? Experimental guitar player Fred Frith has one on some of his guitars:
