Abstract:
1. A guitar, comprising: an audio transducer assembly adapted to generate at least one pair of mixed analog string signals representative of string vibrations of guitar strings mounted on the guitar when the guitar strings are strummed, each mixed analog string signal further comprises an x-plane signal component and a y-plane signal component; a guitar processing circuit in communication with the audio transducer assembly, the guitar processing circuit adapted to generate a predetermined number of digital string signals based on the analog string signals and to format the digital string signals generated by the processing circuit to be compatible with a predetermined number of digital communication protocols; and a guitar output assembly in communication with the guitar processing circuit and adapted to output the digital string signals generated by the guitar processing circuit; wherein the audio transducer assembly includes at least two out of phase coils adapted to generate the at least one pair of mixed analog string signals; and wherein the x-plane signal components of the at least one pair of mixed analog string signals have inverted polarities.
