Pretty good idea, really, but seems like grunge and stuff could get caught in there when the things rotate the frets. Dunno, it could catch on.

If it was $2500, yes. Not for $5000.

I saw the video on the web site and got to thinking about the Switch Board fiasco.This looks a lot easier but what if you just dont like the guitar?
