Self-Tuning Electric Guitar

avirrey writes "The Technology Review has an interesting article on a Gibson Self-Tuning Guitar. Purist argue that you shouldn't need a guitar that self-tunes. Others argue that this will allow an artist to change tuning with one 'favorite' guitar, instead of having to swap out between songs." Ok I know what I think- freakin' sweet. Only technology will guarantee my sucking on the electric will at least be reasonably in-tune suckiness. Dear Gibson, Slashdot really needs to review your guitar. We'll need several review units and we lost your return address.

There's a solution for that, of course. The solution is to be a member of the Grateful Dead. They often took a full minute or more to tune up in the middle of a gig. The audience was too stoned to care, the band could have given everyone a picture of a murder victim and they'd have still been entertained.
