Great idea for playing live gigs!

But if I had the money I would get one just for those lazy hazy summer days were I'm sitting under the trees in our back yard just strumming away.


OK, a random thought;
Why does toilet paper need a commercial? Who's not buying it?

I thought the way the video showed the guy passing the whole day playing guitar was pretty humorous. Starts out with a "Honey I'm gone for the day" note from the wife, then playing guitar on the sofa. Later in the day the scene shifts to the front porch and the guy is playing guitar. Early evening and the guy is in (really nice) garage/ mancave playing the guitar before, finally, still playing guitar late at night in the garage.

Anyone got a guesstimated MSRP on these yet?

How nice will depend on HOW MUCH (and I buy /spend on lots of crap)

Based on this site:
http://www.musicradar.com/news/guitars/m..._content=238855

They are around $1,125 USD.

{edit} Just noticed that this is the same site that Jim already mentioned.

If you like this look at the Tonewood Amp

http://www.tonewoodamp.com/

Advantages 1) you can install this on any guitar.
2) it also works plugged into any PA or Amp no effects needed

$239.00 USD

Pretty neat dga! Nice find. The web site seems to imply tone wood amp is made in small batches by a start up. The firmware also seems to be in a state of flux. Hope the manufacture will survive and not be a one run and done company.

The Yamaha guitar can connect to an amp using a cable jack located in the strap end pin.

Corrected the post the second advantage was supposed to be the price. You play with effects with or without an amp. I think the Yamaha is like this too.
I know a guy in Raleigh who got one of the first releases. His works flawlessly. I hope they do well too.

Sad but the videos don't work on this site for me.
