Graphene and Silly Putty. Future Acoustic Pickup?

[Spook]

For the geeks among us, there is some material science going on that combines silly putty and graphene that is very sensitive when it comes to picking up vibration. Maybe we'll be seeing this in future acoustic guitar pickups.

Thanks! I've speculated on AGF about the possible future incorporation of graphene in guitar-making. It'll be interesting to see how and when this material begins to roll out with its likely future cost reductions. Just imagine the lightness and responsiveness of a guitar top made of layered graphene!
