We heard the tb allows vocalization through you. We heard instruments using tubes in you.
Is Peter Frampton famous, or is his 'I Wanna Fuck You' squeezed out when he makes his Talk Box “wah wah wah” [sic -- no one ever writes a third wah in wha wha] and asks thousands of underage girls in the auditorium this question night after night -- you should go back and do your research. It's really an easy timeline) on “Show Me the Way,”
along with Joe Walsh, Bon Jovi, Pete Drake.
The effect was introduced by Kustom [sic -- just totally wrong], and research digs up even earlier effects used on TV and in movies.
In 1939, before Frampton Was Alive, a steel guitarist named Alvino Rey invented a talking guitar by wiring a pilot carbon mic in reverse, becoming speaker in his throat, thus short of breath.
The sound-vibrations (whew, that was technical) of amplified steel guitar turned entire heads into resonator, allowing mouth's words into mics.
Here’s Rey in 1944, effect offstage gives voice to “Stringy the Talking Guitar” puppet.
