What do you guys think of Prepared Guitars?
Very few popular bands are experimental enough to do this any more and I was just wonder what everyone's opinion or favorite band doing this kind of stuff is.
A prepared guitar is a guitar played with something that's not standard in order to change the timbre and quality of the sound, the most common example being using a glass or metal slide.
Other stuff that people have used includes playing with a violin bow, playing with drumsticks, jamming a screwdriver under the strings and strumming above the screwdriver, using a baseball bat as a slide, using a razor blade as a pick (as was done in the background of the joker's theme from dark knight), using a screwdriver as a slide etc.
