Fender will be coming with automatic "robot" tuning like we have on the Gibson robots! Located on the headstock, fully retrofittable to real tuners. Funny thing is... this is not even a jokejps wrote:Since most of us won't be at either show, you may as well tell us about it now, Werner.
Kind of intrigued...I have tinkered with Gibson's system a lot and I like the idea but I have found it to be pretty finicky. One of my students had a Robot LP and had all kinds of problems with it, and not his fault either.Wildberry wrote:Fender will be coming with automatic "robot" tuning like we have on the Gibson robots!

Who said anything about basses? It's the six stringers that all major guitar companies make a big deal about.Wildberry wrote:Come one, we provided you bass players with instruments that have 4 instead of 6 strings, and now you still need help playing?rickenbrother wrote:Will they come out the device that moves your fingers for you so can play anything without practice or effort next year?
This guy seemed to do okay with one string: We saw him at the Sawdust Festival during RIC's 75th anniversary weekend.cjj wrote:Hey, some of us have trouble with just one string...Wildberry wrote:Come one, we provided you bass players with instruments that have 4 instead of 6 strings, and now you still need help playing?rickenbrother wrote:Will they come out the device that moves your fingers for you so can play anything without practice or effort next year?
