Cool... but can you do spins/flips with one?

[Tonemonger]

@Evilwhiteclownpunk if you're a man you can...

[Tonemonger]

There's another demo of the Naturacoustic Piezo bridge on the cinder block by guitar legend George Worthmore at the Newport Guitar Festival... Can see it at the Lashbrook guitars website or do a youtube search for "George Worthmore Lashbrook Guitars"

This thing sounds like crap. Sterile and soulless. Remove the time based fx and it will sound even crappier. Why are people so surprised that it works? Didn't we already know that pickups pick up?

[Tonemonger]

@bmwk1200rsl - Maybe check out the other demos of the Lashbrook Naturacoustic bridge on a real guitar in our channel or on the Lashbrook Guitars website.

Does the bridge really matter? Please i want to know!

[Tonemonger]

@locohellraiser The bridge makes all the difference. A piezo pickup is what most acoustic guitars use... Using string pressure and vibration instead of magnetics. The Naturacoustic Piezo Bridge is made for electric guitars / basses to get an authentic acoustic sound without sacrificing the electric sound qualities. (You won't find that in a hybrid) It's special design and tone wood construction allows the bridge to vibrate and respond like a real acoustic guitar.

This must b good for rock

[acledfloyd]

This is what I call advertising.

[lmsjr]

what song is he playing?

[Deneteus]

Heavy!! W_W

[MrMagnificents]

But he should have finished with a Pete Townshend guitar smash!!!

[NicklausSIR2]

Robert Fripp would love the sound of this guitar, I think (maybe not the wieght though)

[beatsinabar]

I'd expect concrete to be a pretty good material for a solid guitar (apart from the weight thing). Heavy, minimal flex, great for sustain. Whereas particle board etc as he mentions will never sound that great, whatever the pick-up.

[randomtwit]

Jeez you might sell 10 guitars at those idiotic prices

wtf!

[Enofrappini]

@1212surface .....yeah, if they're buyin' pet rocks they'd buy a cinder block guitar, huh?
