Lightning Proof Guitar

ArcAttack is a performance art group that specializes in playing music through a combination of home made, high tech instruments. The main attraction of their performance is the use of two custom built Singing Tesla Coils, which have been modified to play musical notes by modulating their spark output.

In this video, ArcAttack is testing out the world's first lighting-proof MIDI guitar in their warehouse in Austin, Texas. The MIDI signal from the guitar is routed through a fiber optic cable to control the Tesla coils.
