Not Synth or MIDI. Interesting guitar built to sustain in any fret position. Kind of cool sounding! Also mutes any postion not played.

It sustains the strings themselves no electronic effect.

Cool!
Sure beats the dickens out of the 1960's Moog "keyboard guitar" I have gathering dust behind my chesterfield. Analogue technology at it's bulkiest!
Thanks for posting the clip, Billy.

It's cool and all, and I love Moog stuff. I spent time in college taking a composition class and performing and recording all the work on a big modular Moog.

But, this guitar is supposed to be $6,500. Ouch.

I wonder if you can make it sound like a good electric guitar. The sounds it gets remind me of the Coral/Danelectro electric sitar combined with a 60's birch Stella.

The effects are switched if played regularly it sounds like a regular guitar. It's kind of interesting, strumming a chord and then hearing it sustain out is kind of cool! You can also turn off the mute which gives it that weird japanese zither effect.

I'm sure we'll hear more of this!
