You should totally do Roundabout by Yes next.

Can you please post more vids without background music? This sounds amazing!

As an engineering student and bass player, I must say, I'm pretty madly in love with your creation.

I've played the bass for almost 20 years and this is probably the first time I've heard a fairly convincing "synthetic" bass line. Very nice! Well done on the muting, next to picking that's probably the most important thing to get right . I would assume you play bass yourself? I'm extremely impressed if not, it may seem like an easy instrument to play, but I've heard more bad bass players than good ones... I'd love to hear a clean version of the sound (i guess there is fuzz/distortion on this).

Amazing, simply brilliant - thanks for posting it.

Man, those optical pickups make for smooth tone. I would love to see a real guitar with that tech in it.

How the MIDI controller choose which string to play the note from the same octave?

[Alden Jenks]

Very elegant. Please fix Dropbox link so I can find out how you did it!

I like the muting solution, very elegant. Nice piece of kit, well done.
