I thought everyone would enjoy this. It's basically awesome. On Dec 7 2007, Gibson USA released a line of guitars that sported a feature previously unheard of: a mechanism that allowed the instruments to tune themselves. This is the stuff of dreams for players seeking a no-hassle approach to keeping guitars in tune or using alternate tunings. For non-players, it's still pretty cool. The mechanism comes on a variety of body styles and you can even retro-fit a standard guitar if you want to.You can also visit Gibson's website for more info and a closer look at the available styles. I guess we'll have to sit tight until luthiers develop guitars that can play themselves. Check out the video below to see the amazing robot guitar in action.

Holy Moses, that is probably the coolest thing I have ever seen. I hate it when they make something so good that I immediately want it and I can no longer pretend I am in charge of my own desires. If you ever get one, I want to see it in action.
Great blog, man. Don't fear the reaper.
