Pop a string on that thing and it looks like it could take a long time to replace, and you can't just grab another guitar off the stand behind you to quickly change without another fusion guitar plus another IPhone etc.
Just saying, it could be a nightmare in a live band situation.
I do also Play guitar as well as my S950 in a full 6 piece band and have used jamup pro and think it's pretty good, but don't need it built into a bulkier sized special guitar.

Really?

I think $800 is a huge price for a gimmick like that, if you want to play outside, use an acoustic guitar..

Have you ever played a guitar? There are things you can do with an electric guitar that you could never do with an acoustic guitar. Believe me, I know.

If you want to see something guitarists WILL be interested in, this I think will be much more sellable and I do not even know what price point it will be at as the kickstarter program for it has not quite begun yet.

I think it will sell a lot too if the street price brings it down to $600. It looks amazing with the amp simulations and the built in speakers. I wish I had more time to get back into the guitar. If the fingerboard and pickups were good, I would buy one in a heartbeat. I played for years, and spent a year putting in 6 hours a day.

I can see a lot of orthopedic problems with people constantly looking down at their iPhone while playing guitar. So if this is successful, I would invest in a company that manufactures neck braces.

When I first began playing nite clubs, bars and restaurants, I had a 6-sting Ibanez that cost me about $350 in the early 1960s. I found a pickup that was spring loaded and fit snugly in the body opening and it really sounded good going through a pawn shop tube amp that I got for $25 back then. Then I graduated to a Yamaha 12-string, which sounded fantastic, much fuller than the six string, ran it through the same amp, and for the next decade I was singin' country music to the ladies at all the local bars, VFWs and American Legions. As the song says "Those were the days my friend." I had lots of fun, later formed a 5 piece country band, then some damned fool introduced arranger keyboards. WOW! That was a long time ago, but those years are still shining brightly in the cobwebs of my mind.

For what you get with the price tag on that guitar, it's a real bargain, and if I have a few bucks left over at Christmas Time, I just might have to buy one for my son.

All the best,

Gary cool
