Take A Strat Clone And An iPad ...

Ever wonder what an iPad grafted onto an electric guitar would be like?

Wonder no more:

Someone has stuck an iPad into an electric guitar – and it might just be the six-string of the future

I find it fascinating and wonder what directions this can take and what software will be written. Can it help new players learn faster without replacing the need to actually learn to play?

Would a fair comparison be that this is similar to the modern keyboard vs. the traditional piano?

I'm not the target market either, but who knows where this could go.

On the other hand it could be great new fun for a while, and then everyone yawns and goes back to traditional guitars.

The future is here now.
