No, this isn't the latest peripheral for Guitar Hero or Rock Band; this is the big leagues. The Digital DiGuitar is completely stringless and can replicate pretty much any sound or tone out there via MIDI signal. This could save hours of tweaking your regular guitar and amps trying to find that perfect sound.
If you are a guitarist, there's no doubt you will be a little wary of the Digital DiGuitar, shrugging it off as just another fad. Well boys and girls, this just may be the real deal.
The designers of the Digital DiGuitar basically say that the digital actuators in the fret board of the guitar give off the same sensation of vibrations as if you were playing the same note on a stringed axe. Woah.
