Looks like something out of Guitar Hero, Version 2000. I'll have to try and sneek over to the show and see that thing.

Interesting, but it is not the guitar for me.

I'm considering one of these as a travel guitar. It's a guitarhero controller too.

Looks like fun.

I think it would be quite fun to play, mabye as a synth or something. However it will never replace a real guitar. It won't be able to convey the musicians tone or soul through it. You won't be able to make sweet sweet love to it.

Convey the tone? Maybe not, but soul is in the musician, not the instrument.

No thanks. I have been playing for 40 years. I also own a large synth collection. When I play it is a very intimate experience. My fingers on the strings are a big part of that. Light beams meh

I don't see anything redeeming about this "guitar" if I can't feel the strings bending under my fingers I don't want anything to do with it.
