Of course, I'm limited by the cheapo computer speakers. But I wasn't impressed by the tinny tone.

Kind of a combination of a fretlight guitar, a guitar hero controller, and a You Rock guitar.Kick Starter funded, and a $450 price tag... Plus $200 (with a contract) for the smartphone... |

And, from the looks of it, an iPhone dock! That is the part that's pretty cool. It can - at least theoretically - sound like anything you can load up on your phone, right? I don't want it, but I think it's pretty cool that it exists. |

I don't want it, but I think it's pretty cool that it exists. +1, i didn't get the link to this from any <insert your favorite guitar mag/site here/>. I got the link from slashdot.org, the premium source for open source/open computing geeks for nearly 20 decades. This little detail that you noticed (iphone dock) is what makes this little toy different from the rest of retro futuristic guitarosaurus'es. |

I was a bit concerned all the videos and pics were of a 30 pin dock. They are claiming lightning is coming as well as modular docks. Honestly, if you had one, you probably wouldn't want to put your iPhone in it, rather and iPod touch and leave it dedicated to the purpose.  Can you imagine a call, text, or notification for your urologist appointment coming through during a gig? |

Spoken like someone who's been there! Heh, not myself Gai, but I have been in meetings where peoples calendar alerts pop up on the projector... It's embarrassing in a meeting, it would be catastrophic at a gig. I had one guy who's entire prescription schedule and names for each drug flipped to the top of his Gmail schedule every time he scheduled future meetings on the projector. Frightening! I explained to him about maintaining separate calendars... He still does it. |
