>Electronic toothbrush

Do you, like Eric Johnson, find that you get a better tone from this device using standard batteries as opposed to rechargeable ones? What outputs does it have - USB? mini-jack? Are there any cheaper alternative units available?

Heh heh...very funny. I find that the type of toothpaste on the brush makes all the difference in tone. Blue sounds better than red.

A clean set of teeth, a UV light and you could add some impromptu lighting effects during the set.

Thinks: wonder if an electric toothbrush could form a low-fi e-bow? Will test it and let you know
