Abstract
A guitar has a control system with a control surface disposed over the guitar and connected to the control system. A gesture is performed over the control surface. The gesture is created by user interaction with the control surface, such as movement of one or more fingers. The operation of the control surface is selectable and generates electrical signals representative of the gesture. An audio signal generated by the guitar is modified in response to the control signal. A musical accessory, e.g., an amplifier, effects box, synthesizer, special effects, or speaker is coupled to the guitar. The control signal is sent to the accessory to modify and control properties of the accessory. A configuration of the accessory and a configuration of the guitar are modified in response to the control signal. The control system is programmed to output the control signal over a wireless network.
