This guitar’s features didn’t really sound all that impressive at first, but that’s because the first news article I read didn’t really explain very well. Just watch this Gibson video below that shows a how-to on operation of the guitar. Anyone who plays will drool, especially if you love alternate tunings.

This is officially part of the Les Paul line. First off, this thing will tune the guitar for you, on the fly. Not with some helpful tones that help you tune by ear, but with actual servos on each key that turns and tunes the guitar for you. It will also automatically change to any alternate tuning programmed into it on the fly. And to top it off, it takes most of the work out of stringing the instrument. All of this combines with a MSRP of $2499, which actually was much lower than I was expecting, due to the fact that many Les Paul’s already cost about that much.
