Not all that futuristic really though, just looks futuristic IMHO It's got the crazy micro/bendy/wavy tru temperament fret system and two DINO pickups. Pretty much stuffed with pricey options. I'd love to try one though!!

I"m guessing nobody here has tried the tru temp fret stuff? If so please share your thoughts!

I was interested in "fancy" fretting concept form the very beginning (since they published it) but unfortunately...had no chance to try it out I think no matter what direction will "the future guitar" take, I think some solutions will stay the old way. Let's be honest refretting true temperament is a cost not all will afford and....not all services could deliver.

Know the nut crown files from stewmac? Now imagine how this supose to work for fanned frets You could do more harm than good to a fret

I believe the guitar not having a tru temperament has something to do with its popularity, specially the electric becoming and still the bad boy of all instruments

I have yet to try the Tru Temp thing myself. I"m very curious about it, especially on fanned frets! I have finally tried a FANNED FRET 7 in the prototype that STRICTLY 7 GUITARS sent me and I"m digging it
