The Paul Vo Collector's Edition Moog Guitar: in the palms of the stars

Back in early July, an insider informed MusicRadar that Muse's Matt Bellamy was one of the first celebrity players to take delivery of the Moog Guitar.

Now, Moog has issued a press release revealing that a whole host of big names have jumped onboard, with orders in excess of $1.3 million and supply struggling to meet demand.

Big name six-stringers getting Mooged off their faces include former Velvet Underground star Lou Reed, Blondie's Chris Stein, Maroon 5's James Valentine, Nine Inch Nails linchpin Trent Reznor and The Eagles' legend Joe Walsh.

Just imagine that Hotel California solo sustaining on and on for days on end…

The Moog Guitar model currently shipping is the $6495 Paul Vo Collector's Edition. Click here to see a video demo and read the full MusicRadar review of the prototype.
