Comments on: Brian Moore Becomes iGuitar http://createdigitalmusic.com/2007/03/30/brian-moore-becomes-iguitar/ The latest gear, software, and techniques for electronic music production and performance Sun, 22 Nov 2009 04:02:47 -0600 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.5 hourly 1 By: Nick http://createdigitalmusic.com/2007/03/30/brian-moore-becomes-iguitar/comment-page-1/#comment-151004 Nick Mon, 02 Apr 2007 13:10:01 +0000 http://createdigitalmusic.com/2007/03/30/brian-moore-becomes-iguitar/#comment-151004 IMHO, the biggest problem is not the name: it's the look of their guitar. It's a pointy 80's inspired "Super-Strat" design. It would be nice if they came out with a few other options for headstoks and body shapes. Even Line6 didn't do the heavy metal thing with their POD guitar thing. Come to think of it, Line6 is their biggest competitor, because, unlike Gibson, they are moving units and improving all the time. Gimme a BrianMoore guitar with an on-board Adrenalinn and I'll bite ;) IMHO, the biggest problem is not the name: it’s the look of their guitar. It’s a pointy 80’s inspired “Super-Strat” design.

It's too cutesy for a guitar. I guess BM Guitars isn't a very good name either. It's one reason why I have a Godin Freeway SA guitar rather than an iGuitar.

Too bad about the name though. Are they going to make the guitars out of translucent purple acrylic? Zing! That’s cool. Too bad about the name though.

Really? It's one thing to name a product line that, it's another to name your whole company that. The iThing is already starting to wear a little thin these days. It's like naming your guitar company Walkguitar back in the 80's. Sure it will seem hip at that point, biting the style of Sony's popular product... but move forward 15 years, and all of a sudden the name loses much of its appeal. ATA iGuitar…. Really?
