There is no better instrument for touchstyle if you really are a guitarist....

Why do you prefer the Box? It appears that you have it tuned as two guitars side by side. I noticed that you have a Stanley Jordan book. Does the tuning make it easier to work with?

Finally, why does Rick Asley come up as a related video in YouTube? lol

I've been tempted to tune a tapper in dual-guitar to try it out, but I might build one with two generic strat necks to give it a go like this guy is doing http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oHg5SJYRHA0

I haven't been on for a while, sorry!

I tune one half EADGCF, like stanley jordan, because I find this is easier for a lot in the right hand and the other half is EADGBE.

The other way round or both EADGCF does make chords the same in every position but it also makes some chord shapes awkward and I don't find it hard to play them the normal way anyway...
