Gibson Robot Guitar

Robtgeetar Here is an unsurprisingly cheesy demo video of the potentially interesting Gibson Robot Guitar. It tunes itself. Fortunately for me (and Sonic Youth), you can switch it to manual tuning. Just about the only thing I can do on a guitar is tune it. And play the opening chords to Ziggy Stardust. Oh yeah, and the bassline to Bela Lugosi's Dead. Retail price for the Robot Guitar is $2499.
