Looks great, love the sound..particularly the piezo.
Would love to hear the instrument with all 4 outputs at once treated differently. Is the the start of the surround Megatar?
Check out this guy who taps (partly) in surround

Too much technology in guitars these days. People with these things want you to be impressed more with what they got so they justify the expense.
Give me an acoustic guitar to >>play<< any day.

true the gibson one is a little overkill..I was just waiting for them to announce a wifi or bluetooth connectivity of all 6 channels or something like that but I guess that they didn't want to do that just yet!

That nitro did look cool. I really like piezos on my bass. I don't know if they would work for me on the tapper.

Glenn of no SG12 replies:
Probably, but if I had $10,000.00+ to spare i'd most certainly pop for an Adrian Belew Signature Series Parker Fly, equipped to the max !!!! And another $10K would get me a Sitarla, which is most minimally equipped with no technology at all. Now, if I could get my hands on an SG12........

Yeah, the signature really improves the sound. For ten grand, I think it even plays itself!

I agree with Ray, Signature Series instruments add no value whatsoever to their standard cousins; Trey Gunn Signature Series Warr, Bob Moog Signature Series Theremin, Adrian Belew Signature Series Parker Fly, all marketing gimmicks....... :rolleyes:

>Bob Moog Signature Series Theremin<
I think that Bob Moog only charged ~$100 more for the signature version of the Etherwave Theremin. Now that Bob is no longer with us, that might not have been a bad investment, Glenn.

Unfortunately, due to storage techniques I really paid no attention to, both the pitch and volume antennas on my Signature Series Etherwave Theremin actually melted somewhat into both the top and bottom sides of the instrument's wood case's finish when they were stored in the soft case I purchased with the instrument, major bummer !!! Even more unfortunately, while felineless I kept the instrument screwed onto a microphone stand and plugged in for immediate playing. When Floyd and Alice arrived their killer instincts caused an attack that ripped the microphone stand receptacle clear off the Theremin !! Not that i'd ever sell my Theremin, but the Drakeley Estate will never profit from this being a Signature Series instrument even tho it is the electronics and not the casing & its finish that make it so, and Bob's signature survived, which means nothing to me...............
