Much that is essential for the function of the electric guitar remains invisible to begin with:

• The movement of strings and loudspeaker-membranes is too quick to be perceived in detail with the eye.
• Electric and magnetic fields are from a different, somewhat mysterious realm altogether and remain hidden.
• Wave propagation is known to us from the waves on water – but there it is often complex and confusing.
• Electrons buzzing about within a tube stay – irrespective of the "hot" sound they may generate – as atomic particles outside our daily reality.

Many of us would like to "get a picture" of what really is going on in the invisible domain.

This picture can aid our understanding considerably!

For this reason, GITEC has put together a collection of animations that render visible what happens. We have just reissued the animations on our website, and have complemented them with explanations.

Here they are:

Also, there is further knowledge in the scientific articles the translations of which we hope to continue soon:

We have updated the member-projects page with two new projects (in fact they date back to the 1980's so they are more of the vintage category). Both are simple but effective and alps hopefully provide an easy read - this time the language being English. Check it out!
