Again, maybe a silly notion. It occurred to me, so just thought I’d ask. It might be cool if this happens, to add a little reverb to one’s voice without needing any amplification...kind of like a TWA for the voice.
Interesting theory, and although sound waves interfer with each other I don't think you will see the vocal part pick up the reverb effect and add it to the vocals as you describe! Maybe someone else can explain exactly how the interference between them work?!?

One interesting test, though, would be to put a mixer before the TWA where you mix-in vocals with the signal from the guitar mic, adding the effect for both the vocals and the guitar. I might give it a try, although I don't expect good results. What I have done is putting a compressor pedal between the pickup and the TWA trying to avoid it to clip when I play songs where I change the dynamic a lot. But I got feedback problems, but it might be solvable with some tuning.

The HyVibe guitar will support compression, and it also has some sort of insert jack letting you to add your pedals.
