Ha these are so cool, here's a vid of how to make your own "ghetto" talk box (cheapo blue peter make thing) and it actually works!

And here's a well good vid of Stevie Wonder using a talk box!

Does anyone have one? i'm tempted to put one on xmas list or something just because they are that cool.

Edit: btw at 1.24 on the Stevie Wonder vid is it me or does it sound like the bassist is about to bust into Crazy Train?! haha

that was fun
Talk box can be fun - if a bit hard on your fillings

First heard it with Peter Frampton & Joe Walsh and later with Aerosmith (Sweet Emotion and Walk This way live) , then of course Scorpions , Bon Jovi and Slash
