    What a neat idea. Wonder if the magnetic field would interfere with other electrics?

    Been toying with this idea for a while.
    My only concern has been the possibility of setting up a weird elctromagnetic feedback but it appears this isnt an issue

    There is always a workaround for glitches, mistakes and other Guitar building gremlins.....

    They are like the magnets Warhammer gamers use to hold their models on to the dioramas. (Yeah, my son was into that for a while). They aren't very strong, they are made to have enough of a bond to stop the models getting knocked over on accident, but also to separate easily so there isn't damage to the model. They should definitely be weaker than pickup magnets.
