I was mucking about with rhythmic sounds this morning and came up with a real silly one I called "Disco Fury" because it fakes a disco type-alternating octave bass line as well as a almost "four-on-the-floor" kick sound (at times - depending on what I play).
Audio example is here:

Please excuse the fret buzz - old strings. ? The fast arpeggio at the end was just to see if I could do it at that tempo (answer: almost!).
For those of you with GR3, here is the patch:
Audio example is here:

Note that it's both piezos (input 1) and magnetic pickups (input 2). If you've got just one or the other plugged in, set GR's input to "Left" or "Right" and it will still work, but will sound different from mine.
It's a fairly complex sound with three signal paths: The piezo pickups are split into two - one filtered, with the filter controlled by an analog sequencer, the other clean, providing the clean guitar sound. The mags are pitch shifted, with the pitch controlled by another sequencer.
Those of you into processing piezo sounds will probably like what I do to sweeten/thicken up the tone without messing with the pitch - If you look at the crossover split, you'll see I have a fast but shallow vibrato, but only on the frequencies above about 4KHz, the frequencies below that are untouched.
