A friend said he saw a video on some site of a new ‘fret scanning’ guitar synth – regular frets, regular strings, USB, MIDI out and no delays. Suppose to react ‘instantly’ on electric guitar and bass (!) and going to sell for ‘$500 or so’. I did not see anything like that reported from the NAMM show. Anybody heard of such a thing? I want one!!

You could always try a lightsnake: http://sewelldirect.com/lightsnake-usb-instrument-cable.asp

One end plugs into your guitar and the other plugs into a USB port – a lot cheaper (and more convenient) than getting a new USB guitar.

I’ve been trying to “buy” a Brian Moore 1.13 w/USB for a year now and every couple of months Brian Moore tells me that my order has been pushed back. Good luck trying to get one…..

What I dont understand is why this is any different from the others because there is also the behringer iAxe 393 and its spose to sound as good as a fender stratocaster. So why does that only cos about $100 while this cos lots more?

Just curious because im thinking of buying one

Did anyone notice that this thing is a B-type usb hub? If someone made an A-type hub, then you could use a bluetooth usb module, and connect via bluetooth to any computer (with bluetooth capability) with any music software. Is Moore reading this? He should take some notes…

I just bought a electric guitar with usb output to the computer.
I can not get it to play out the usb port.
I wonted to be able to record the music on the guitar digitally into the computer useing Cake Walk. so I could print out the music. Is this possible with the usb guitar?
If you could e-mail be any thing I could do to get working. I sure would appreciate it>
Thanks Luther

Very cool — it extends usb length by switching data to fiber optic. Theoretically, that should work quite nicely, though of course I’d want to test it.

Could be useful for other projects, as well; USB limitations can be very restrictive for other things, too.

If you’ve already spent $3,000 on a decent electric guitar, you’ve probably spent the $1,000 needed to get a decent AD convertor like the Yamaha 01X. I don’t see the point of a USB guitar.
