A quilted maple-topped beauty like this would be costly even without the Moog circuitry

It's not often that you come across a guitar that lets you expand your repertoire of styles beyond that of the normal left- and right-hand techniques you can learn from a good teacher (or by finding rare footage of Django Rienhard, Les Paul and Chet Atkins to study). It's also refreshing to have all the juggery-pokery designed into a decent playing body and neck. You don't have to have an understanding of physics, acoustics and electronicds to do something inspired with this guitar but I won't deny it helps if you don't happen to be one of those rare natural adepts who seem to somehow transmute what's happening in his or her head into real sound by just happening to put the controls where they need to be without apparent conscious thought and deliberation.
