That's pretty cool! SamAsh music has them for 45usd. I may stop in sometime and pick one up - would be nice for work - kinda like a stress toy, but could really help with some dim chords and what not.

The shredneck is a very cool idea! If you have a long travel you can practice during it. Who knows how much does it cost?
