Hi all,
I've been inspired by two ideas: one is the split output hybrid guitar, where the bottom strings get a "bass amp" treatment and the top strings get a "guitar amp" treatment, such as https://hybrid-guitars.com/universal8
I've not seen a huge amount of really inspiring music played on these, but what seems to work is a bit of a jazzy fingerstyle approach.
The thing that inspired me was this thing:
Where he's playing this ridiculous little guitar (solidbody nylon string headless 6):

So...
I'm wondering if it's possible to create a dual-output 8 string solidbody nylon string. I'm presuming the pickups would be undersaddle... but would there be too much cross-talk for a satisfactory dual-output system?
===
I have an acoustic fanned fret guitar I'm willing to take a circular saw to for exactly this purpose...
