i dont like the way it sounds particularly at all. using a keyboard for a moog synth part makes more sense to me. its like midi guitar..... who really ever uses that- not any serious guitar players i know.
gay. pot smoking hippie. thought the guitar would be cool. but like other dude said. church organ (except when its sucking the 'energy'. he be sucking le dick
I can't help but laugh at the comments here. I really have no use for this guitar, but the hate from all of you is just too funny.
The things you guys are saying about this guitar is probably similar to what was said when the first electric guitar was made. Stupid or Useless? Just because it doesn't suit what you do doesn't mean someone else won't do something awesome with it.
hum i don't like the sustainer from Fernandes guitar it make a larsen effect, but this Moog guitar have a lot of personality i think, especialy the mute sustainer, but we can seriously made the same sustainer effect with an ebow, it's more cheap and it's usable on every electric or acoustic iron string guitar, like banjo.
Moog synths are great but this thing is a complete piece of crap and I agree with
loganj1988 its USELESS.
Just get a hexaphonic pickup like a Roland GK 2A, use your own guitar and by an Axon 100 or a GR 20,
If you need an analog sustainer by a Fernandes Sustainer, all of these alternative you get to keep your own guitar and dont have to fork out a ridiculous $ 6495 !!
yea thats how they went broke the first time getting off track they just should have remade the gizmotron an ebow that you can play chords with it would be alot cheaper and sell more
Just because it doesn't sound like that Jimmy Paige doesn't make it gay. There's a lot more to guitars than Strats, Les Pauls, and Marshalls.
This sounds nothing like an organ with the exception of swells.
I can almost guarantee that everything you just said, with the exception of the stupid organ comment, was once said about the electric guitar and synthesizers.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
a few reasons why i wouldnt buy this................
1.its basically an ebow sound,they have just stolen the ebows idea and put it into a pick up??
2.this guitar is ugly as fuck,i would be embarresed to play it on stage.
3.its called a guitar synth but????to me when somebody says synth i think of all the cool sweeps and weird sounds that can be made,this just sounds like an ebow???????
4.i couldnt afford it even if i saved up for 10 years????
you need to play this guitar to realy apreciate it. its no a synth at all. its an electric guitar that does sustain and muting. i have played this and its amazing, i dont realy like the filters but the things you can do with controlled sustain and muting are amazing. it is expensive but they
are working on developing a lower cost guitar as well as well as an actual acoustic guitar that has full sustain and muting capabilities. and wehn i say muting im not talking audio mute i mean they suck the acoustic enrgy out of the strings. so they stop vibrating... and its variable!
2) Agreed. It's the black "cut aways." It looks like a black-face (the racist stage makeup; think Al Jolson) version of a parker. It's kinda racist but it's what jumped into my head
3) The actual definition of a guitar "synth" is closer to this than the current Roland line up, which it, technically a MIDI-Guitar with a synth that happens to model guitars.
4) Everything cool costs money. There a dozens of guitars out there that cost more and do less than this (PRS Dragon-POS).
Every demo of this sounds like shit, it sounds like they have no clue how to play it. I was hoping I'd been blown away but it sounds either like some backwards guitar effect or a shitty ukulele, big woop! Sounds like it could have potential but $6500 give me a break. plus it looks ugly as fuck - a parker fly with gimmicky crap on it.... shame.
I think its too much of a change for the guitar world. However I like the idea that it is not an effect, rather its fully analog interaction between electromagnet and strings..so its organic..However, I believe its too much of a change to be accepted among guitarists..
this is the 3rd most important electronic discovery in guitar world(leaving the external gear out of this)1)pickups,2)sustainer and 3)moog guitar.i think it is like a super sustainer or something with negative reaction also.but the money is very much to spent.i know that prices will fall one day and then...i'll be there.after this,i don't think el.guitars will evolve further.
Probably. Most of us are still stuck in the 50's as far as guitar technology goes. Same passive pickups, same bolt on guitars, same tube amps.
I also remember listening to thousands of idiots bitch about the V-Guitar and the Variax (though I hate the latter), both of which seem to be doing fairly well. So who knows? This thing might catch on when they drop the price to 2 grand.
Hmm, personally I see numerous possibilities with this instrument and I'm glad that guitar technology is still moving forward into the future instead of back to the past, but man this thing needs to come way down in price, if only if the old song was true and the best things in life were free! But I hope this is a sign of things to come and we see more products like these except without the heart attack inducing price tag
Yea its quite amazing but if you spent only one third of the cost of this guitar on effects pedals, you could emulate and reproduce almost any sound they can make with the moog guitar. Cool stuff though. I'd rather have a guitar with midi interface like Roland has out than this.
Talk about things to come. I've had my patented infinite sustain device up and running on all strings since 1987. I've only changed op amps twice in that time and the darn thing cost me five hundred dollars to make. I installed the system into a strat and a hagstrom swede. Theoretically you could put it on any steel string guitar.
Check out infinite sustain guitar on youtube to see the hagstrom.
no they dont. the revolutionary sound of the moog guitar comes from the strings.they vibrate more, and makes a clear sound.the sustain is endless(if you want it to be).you can also mute the guitar, witch you cant on other guitar.if you think ordinary pickups do that you gotta be the dumbest person i've ever heard of.
Did the guy say it was $6495 Dollars. Well forget that it would have to be one of the best guitars in the world to command that sort of price. And be honest it looks like a pile of cheap shit.
Dreadful demo and left me feeling less than enthusiastic.
Moog has fallen on his face with this one, it will NEVER sell!
It's quite revolutionary I'll give you that but personally I think that they could have made it look a lot better because right now it looks like one of those horrible default Ibanez or copy guitars. A guitar that different should at least look the part.
yeah, the sales rep is pretty Overly happy, almost like hes talking about something other than the guitar, something secretive! wait a few years, and Moog will have the budget version probably under 2 G.
First off, this technology is amazing. Second, this guy doing the interview is quite possibly the worst I have ever seen. He cares not. He knows nothing. Go Moog!
Its funny because the "reporter" acts like he couldn't give half a shit about it and the Moog guy has perma-grin like he's holding the cure for cancer/AIDS.
I'm almost sure it is capable of being the cure for cancer/aids. Aesthetically and Sonically that guitar is incredible, it's gonna change the world in a way none of the other concept guitars could. This technology is accessible and groundbreaking. I just hope that it will eventually be something that will get in the hands of people other than cheezy eighties guitar players.
Thats badazz, amazing, and innovative, but for the price of about 8 fender strats!?! I'm not sure that's gonna catch on too well. At least not in America with this economy! 2 to 3 grand would have been reasonable. They should have just put their electronics inside a $1000 guitar instead of in a boutique $4000 guitar.
definitely GAY at 6:52!

Can be done with Ebow, sustainer, and palm mute thru Model D, which would've been cheaper, even with an LP Robot thrown in.
For the price, it should've had VCA + EG, magnetic LFO + various waves, and noise. And free moogerfoogers as well.
Plus it should look like the Casio DG-20.
