Have you ever wondered how your electric guitar turns the vibration of a string into a signal that travels through the cable? Have you ever wanted to do it yourself? Then we have the workshop for you! Join NUSound in our final meeting of the year next Monday, where we will make a simple electric string instrument from materials you can find around your home. It’s totally free, along with the awesome food we will have!

We will also have Eboard elections, so come out and vote! If you’re interested in running, please prepare a short speech about why you think you would be a good fit. We will have more details regarding the elections coming soon.

When: Monday, December 5th, 7:00 PM- 8:00 PM

Where: 108 West Village G

Description:

We will be making a single-string instrument that we can play with a slide, much like a guitar. We will also create our own electromagnetic pickups, by winding a wire around a magnet, and placing it close to the string. When we’re done, we can plug it into a guitar amp and shred!
