Re: Hell-O!

Y'all understand that this isn't a real guitar, right? At least it doesn't look like one. I suspect synthesized output only. The fact that they say it never needs tuning leads me to think that this is where the Beetle Quantar technology wound up... they used to do pitch-to-midi by running a sonar (I believe) signal down the strings from the bridge, and measuring how long it took to bounce back to the source from your finger. That way they knew string length, hence desired pitch. but you used 6 identical strings on it, no direct audio output from the strings.

I've got one on the way. Should be here in a couple of days.  Looking to use it more as a midi controller and for live looping.  Will let you know how it goes.

Who'd have thought that one day Rock Band players would actually be able to play the guitar?

If you want an ear full of YouRockGuitar talk, go sign up for the MIDIGuitar yahoo list and check the archives.  It's been shipping for a few weeks now.  Looks pretty cool to me.
