Wanna see something cool - LAG guitars

Yeah Yeah - its a guitar


True acoustic guitar with on board effects. I know it's real as I've played one - they are amazing.

They make an ABG, but I have to say it's not ready for prime-time yet

Effects built into guitars(albeit electric, and bass as well)have been around since the 60’s. Not always that functional, due to the technology of the time period, or necessarily popular, but it existed, and was given a go a number of times.
 
I'm well aware - what makes this one cool is it is a true acoustic guitar. They use a pair of oscillators attached to the underside of the top to vibrate the whole instrument and create the effect. There is no speaker; or I suppose more accurately the whole guitar is the speaker.
