HyVibe, a French company that specializes in a range of innovative smart guitar technologies designed for guitar players of all levels, is preparing to launch a high-tech guitar gadget that is designed to make it possible for owners of acoustic guitars to quickly and easily help their instruments attain electric guitar sound capabilities.
The 'Essential' guitar gadget is an easily installable gizmo that takes a matter of minutes to set up without the use of any tools. The kit comprises a user interface, a pair of actuators, a sensor, a processor and an output cable. When guitarists play their instrument, the sensor detects vibrations and notifies the processor, which then activates the actuators in order to generate effects such as reverb and distortion.
Currently the subject of an Indiegogo campaign, this handy guitar gadget can be reserved for a pledge of around $240.
