You could put a small battery to an electromagnet and mess with the pickups.

It's possible, but I'm not sure how it would help you play the guitar. Unless, you're doing it to sabotage someone.

It would just sound good if you were playing Metal.

Haha awesome I love it !
Do the components not get annoying and catch on the strings when you play though?

idk if that is a problem, but if it is, maybe u cood laminate it, buy like melting clear plastic or using a machine or taping it, to prevent that problem.
you could also simply cut out this shape from any computer chip

I just ground some of them off with my Dremel.
