I don't think you guys understand the purpose.

It's not so you don't have to learn to tune a guitar. it's so you can program it to instantly change tunings in performance.


Gravity Jim's right, the Robot LP is not about auto-tuning for people that can't tune, it's for rapid precise tuning. It's really cool, actually. I saw it demo'ed in my local guitar shop, and it's amazing how quickly and precisely it tunes itself to various presets. Totally different take than that of the VG Strat. The VG Strat uses Roland modeling technology to simulate various tunings. The Robot LP is real alternative tunings of the strings. Of course, the VG Strat has the ability to sound like a Tele, a Baritone, and an Accoustic. That in itself is pretty cool.

I hate the robot guitar. Gibson should be researching upgrades to their tuners rather than paying so much on research on a guitar that hardly anyone will buy because of the price tag. And if it breaks, yer screwed. :?

I'll stick to fender, they rock. 8)

I'll stick to Fender too. But Gibson will sell a lot of those. There's more then enough die hard Gibson fans that'll shell out big bucks for it.
