Electric Guitar invented in 1931

I just realised something... The first electric guitar was made in 1931!
Do you think thats just a coincidence?

Or will Marty end up not only inventing Rock'n'Roll but also his beloved instrument? :D

Would be hilarious if that happened in a later episode. Its just really humor in the Back to the Future kind of way.
Maybe he will make it as a project at the Science Fair, so he can work together with young Doc again?
What do you think?

    Not necessarily. It could be that George Beachamp's cousin... um... Enid (yeah, Enid!) saw Marty rocking out and passed on the news to his down-on-his-luck inventor relative. Same way Chuck Berry somehow got inspired to write his hit song. Hrm... Carl Sagan? Johnny B Goode? Could it be that Doc Brown invented the Voyager probes?

    That would be hilarious. He would need to get a hold of one in some way, but the science fair is just a wild guess.

    Oh wow ... I never noticed that connection.

    Carl Sagen created a record that contained sounds from Earth ment for extra terrestrial life should they stumble upon the Voyager probes.
    That included music. And one of the songs is Johnny B. Goode. :eek:

    Im starting to love you Telltale, for putting in small details and connections like that that you can discover. Just like in the movies. icon14.gif

    ....Haha! That would also explain the break from the usual pattern of "years ending in 5", if 1931 itself was important.
