What's the point of all this, anyway? Why not just play a real guitar?
Short version: 'Cos not everyone can. Deal with it.
Long version: A particular group I had in mind when designing this was people who have some sort of disability preventing them from using a real guitar (I've received at least one email that indicates that this may have actually worked!). I'm in this category myself, which is why I decided to build it in the first place.
Think of it as the guitarist's equivalent of Stephen Hawking's voice box, if it makes you feel any better about it.
Besides, it's pretty fun to mess with, even if you can play a real instrument :)
