It doesn't address the problem with music though does it? You still have a tempered instrument where certain intervals are there abouts, rather than bullseye. Nothing is going to get round that mate. The problem is music, not the guitar.
I think this is the way to go if anyone is really serious. Though it involves learning how to structure chords to a far greater degree than anyone I know. Do you play the C#b, C#, C## as a major 3rd in a A major in a song in the key of D? Then you have 5ths and 7ths to worry about too. Just to get you through a bit of rock'n'roll!!!

32 frets a octave anyone?
Me neither, I struggle on 12.

Flippin' NONSENSE. Just another way to separate a fool from his money. If Hendrix, Clapton, and Page didn't need it then you don't need it either.

Another Buzz Fenton type of innovation I suppose. What happens when you bend strings?

If you play it drunk, do the frets look straight?
