I've tried to do so with no luck. But again I'm quite the nooby here.
A raspy squarewave sounds awful on good speakers by a person having good hearing. It sounds fine on a cheap guitar speaker that has bad high frequency response by a person who is deaf.I turn off my hearing aids when I hear electric guitar fuzz or bagpipes.

I'll jump to the case to avoid wasting too much of the readers' time. But I'll note I've done some rather hideous armature circuits to attempt this before asking people who're far more experienced.So the question is what'd be the best way to achieve a square wave from a guitar signal? I'd measure the voltage from the pickups but have no tools to do so. But the internet gods are saying 35mV to 1v is average. So I'm thinking boosting the voltage and using an op-amp (in my case a LM324) as a comparator would somehow work? I've tried to do so with no luck. But again I'm quite the nooby here.
a purely square wave audio signal will sound horrible, plus running DC current into a speaker is a great way to destroy it.
