I'm guessing some logic controlled phased locked loop circuits feed into servo motors attached to the strings...

Beauty.

Kim Michell kicks ass btw...
Progress is not made by everyone joining some new fad,
and reveling in it's loyalty. It's made by forming coalitions
over specific principles, goals, and policies.

    yeah little servos in the machine heads connected to a little computer.

    It's a cool idea, some other companies do it with intelligent pitch shifting without physically changing the strings but it dosen't always sound completely right.
    My Girlfriend said to me..."How many guitars do you need?" and I replied...."How many pairs of shoes do you need?" She got really quiet.

    Oh they definitely are a cool idea. That 3 months since they were released has gone so quick. I know we had a thread going at the time about it. Did anyone end up getting one or playing one?
