Gibson planning digital guitars

["astroblue" <astro@astroblue.com>]

I know there was a recent thread regarding networking protocols recently
(which I didn't read thoroghly), so maybe this is redundant.

Anyway, I just ran into a mention on the cool geek news site "Slashdot" (
http://slashdot.org/ ) of a move by Gibson to use a modified ethernet
protocol to send digital audio from the guitar.
