Electric Guitar

Electric guitars took the idea of sound waves and acoustic properties and mostly threw them in the trash. An electric guitar is 'electric' because the vibration of the metal strings create an electrical signal through the use of sensitive magnetic pickups. This didn't change much since their inception in the 1930s - but in 2002 Gibson produced a digital guitar that converted the signal from analog to digital internally, which was then piped out through an ethernet cable. Not quite your instrument for just having a jam session at a friend's house. What about taking that concept and fitting out the guitar with high speed wireless - digital and untethered. Rock on.
