OK, I know we all have this thing with looking out for new and impressive guitars, it’s like guitar porn as one of you guys said once.
Yesterday a friend of mine sent me this by mail and since I own a Variax guitar, which can be easily considered a chameleon guitar, it got me started!
I personally didn’t know at first where to put it so I put it both in acoustic guitars and modeling guitars categories since it has a bit from both.
Personally I am not a big fan of resonators, but I must admit this guitar would be great in someone’s guitar collection, isn’t it?
I only ask myself wouldn’t be a be difficult to carry it around with all those wood “sound boards”? I mean, hey, guys, wait a minute please, to switch my sound board to something else. Yeah, now we’re talking!
And yes, of course, I said you will also be interested in it, so here it is, the chameleon guitar from MIT:
Well, would you buy one or not?
Would you if you had payday loans?
By the way, here’s the original article(PDF).

It’s fascinating, to be sure. Whether I’d buy one? Probably not at this stage of the project.

Indeed, you need to wait until the technology becomes stable and usable. My Variax is somehow in a similar situation, but already perfectly usable, this is why I give full credit to such ideas. Only they need money to become stable…

Very interesting, I would love to see more comments from people that have one.

Indeed, just that being a project at this moment, I don’t think there are many people owning one. But indeed, I would love to see a review from somebody that played one.

Yep… It’s just a prototype but Amit Zoran seems to be going further with this project… He plans to do a PhD thesis on the topic!!
