One thing's for sure, Derek Trucks ain't gonna play one.

Loooking forward..

You could almost foresee a universal sync signal being
generated by these guitars, same signal could be linked
to the Bass (with a bass version of tuner)
and keyboards, and voila ! a band that is
always in tune..

I can still tune a guitar to concert E with absolutely
no musical reference.. Just listening in my head to
a song I know is in E or A

I agree that every guitarist should know how to manually
tune. But fuck me, how many of you dudes have done
studio work ?? Anything that saves a few minutes is
a God send.. I would love to pickup a guitar and get
straight into it, instead of checking the fucking tuning
everytime I feel inspiration..

That tuning part is like putting on a condom before
sex, you are all fired up then have to fumble around
for a few wasted minutes.. These annoyances can
definately sap energy away from the "the moment" !!

I love the idea ! (But I agree that dudes need to
know the manual method, MANDATORY !!)

One reason i hate locking nuts is I tune my guitar at home before the gig and by the time the gear is set up it's time to play and the tempurature changes have made the guitar go out of tune.

I know Peavey Wolfgang guitars are ugly but I play one as my main gigging guitar because it doesn't go out of tune. Peavey put two massive graphite reinforcement rods in the neck and I think that was to keep a neck with no finish stable but it seems to work. That neck doesn't shift much.

Plus condoms are the best joke going. Who really uses those things?
