This thing is something quite extraordinary. Looks like an electric guitar, but contains a bunch of modeled guitars that you can select with a switch. When you play the string, the quitar samples the sound in real time and runs it through the converter, as it were, and the sound that actually comes out of it is that of the selected guitar model. That is quite phenomenal, when you think about it. With the accompanying software you can tweak the sound and the tunings to your liking. You can select from a bunch of classic electric guitars, or say, a banjo or a 12-string guitar. That is so incredibly convenient!

I can’t play this thing, though.
