Do you shred it up on the guitar and wish there were a way to capture your one-of-a-kind technique — every bend, hammer and slide? Well then, get thee to the Fraunhofer Institute for Surface Engineering where a few musically-inclined scientists — closet Hendrix fans, we assume — have managed to translate every pluck of the string into a laptop-processed digital control signal. To do this the team layered guitar tailpieces (that part on the end with the knobs and strings) with a ten-micrometer piece of the powerfully named, piezoresistive DiaForce film and recorded string tension with absolute precision
