Ah, 96 years old...

Go on 'ave a strum.

just spent/lost 10 minutes playing with it...
probably the best custom logo animation they've ever made!

I was enjoying that earlier... trying to play a tune, but it's fairly tricky

Im waking up to Nick Drake, thats got a guitar in it,
does that count?

oh, and if you click the keyboard button you can play with the numeric keys...

prefer Leo :)

Name that tune:

245 2465 245 43

and slightly harder
333433 5564 333433

first one is a slightly wonky smoke on the water :-)

Oh and Murt's, you're wrong. Les Paul > Stratocaster.

probably the best custom logo animation they've ever made!

+1

is the first one meant to be smoke on the water?

prefer Leo :)

i prefer leo too

first one sounds like a slightly weird "smoke on the water"?
second one i can't guess :-)

yeah it's smoke on the waterish it's a little off probably sounds better ending in 42 .. the 6 isn't right either but not much else to choose from

I can't work out how they are applying colour to the strings. The animation is done with one big png sprite, but the colours are applied with Javascript, and I don't think they are done with images.

Magnets

How do they work?

^^^geek just strum it. stop trying to take it apart

LOL! It's flash! (guitar11.swf)

^^Can't help it. It's my job to make nice things like this. I've gotta know how it's made.

^ no it isn't. It's plain old HTML, images and some nifty javascript. Flash is only used to produce the sound.

Still uses flash!
