Alvino Rey should be much better known, but even older guitar players have rarely heard of him. You could argue that he's the father of stringed instrument amplification, having invented a pickup for his banjo in the 1920s which would later morph into the Gibson ES-150 Charlie Christian pickup, all years before Les Paul began a career of taking credit for pretty much anything having to do with guitar. Paul was more of a groundbreaking force in recording tech, NOT guitar tech, despite his namesake axe. He did some pioneering guitar stuff, but others did too, and Rey was way earlier.
this is as cool as it is disturbing
also I know I’m a pedant but this is actually a talkbox - the guitar player’s wife is using a talkbox behind the scenes.
Only disturbing for me is music from today. This is pure talent

Looks like a character from Rick and Morty. "Hey, Morty! I've turned myself into a guitar! A GUITAR, Morty!"

The band Zapp used that sound on some of their tunes s.a. More bounce
