That doubleneck is a Rogue 6 and 12 string. The gigantic body gives it a great tone, even though it was super cheap.

Wow, everyone's studio space reminds me of how much I now work "in the box"! Except for my guitars, I gave up my MIDI racks long ago!
Let's hear Stairway to Heaven on that!jfrichards wrote: ↑05 Jan 2025That doubleneck is a Rogue 6 and 12 string. The gigantic body gives it a great tone, even though it was super cheap.

"Stairway to Hernia"... I gave up standing with that one years ago. I got a perfect armless chair for such devices

This is the guitar I use the most because it is so light and still sounds wonderful. It's a modified NK from Korea. It was $300 when I got it, now they're $500

That is impressive! I was always intrigued by guitar synthesizers back in the day but never went down that road. But this is the ultimate solution to making a guitar sound like anything. Expensive but no doubt worth it. Personally, if I want sounds other than a guitar, I use a keyboard. Did anyone try this out? It looks like it's getting rave reviews.MrFigg wrote: ↑06 Jan 2025Have you tried this…

It’s pretty cool but also pretty expensive.
Yeah, I tried it and it worked surprisingly well. I didn't read the instructions (obviously) but after a while I had my guitar playing Mellotrons and Clavinets and all sorts. It tracks really well. I'm much better at guitar than keyboards and it was a whole different experience...bit more feeling to it all. At the end of the day though, like you, I figured I could just as easy use my MIDI keyboard so I saved the money and put it towards a Strymon Cloudburst. If it ever went on sale I might be tempted...but it won't because the guy has said it won't.wendylou wrote: ↑09 Jan 2025That is impressive!

Wow, JamOrigin's Midi Guitar 2 is $150. Changes your guitar into a piano, a B3, or a shakuhachi, or any Reason sound, or anything. And seems to have no delay. I have a Boss SY-200 which changes your guitar into great-sounding synthesizers, with no delay at all. It costs $300. Midi Guitar 2 is calling my name...
I first saw a demo of this with a casio midi guitar connected to a Yamaha FB-01 in 1987jfrichards wrote: ↑10 Jan 2025Wow, JamOrigin's Midi Guitar 2 is $150.

Plus tax.

totally worth it, imo. sure, you can plink around on the keyboard or manually program that stuff in, but it's not the same thing as playing it the way you're used to on an instrument you're familiar with. I don't use it that often these days, but I don't use synths as much either.
