"I believe it was I who invented the
EGP. It basically consists of an acoustic guitar resting on a modified
tripod on which a sound pick-up system has been installed. I then
beat the body of the guitar with my hands, as with a percussion instrument.
I have been involved in playing the congas for some time and was able
to make use of quite a few things from this experience." (Jan
Reimer)
Don't worry, Jan Reimer doesn't pound
on his guitar. Still, his EGP is a highly extraordinary and unique
way of making music with a guitar. The guitar is at times coarsly
strummed, at times carefully picked or almost tenderly caressed,
occasionally also used as a percussion instrument.
