hopia, mani, popcorn, stork, garilyo

a smorgasborg of a blog, rolled into the head of a semi-neurotic, chainsmoker, who feeds into a bottle of Jack Daniels, while dipping his biscotti into a steaming hot triple tall, nonfat, caramel macchiato under the humid breeze of fiji in August.

Check out this guitar. I just want to share how awesome this piece is. I was browsin the Guitar Center Store and I happen to stumble upon this amazing peice of work. Its a sweet, sweet piece of equipment that an acoustic player would want. Rich tones and not to mention 16 guitars in one. You also don't need to buy a Capo for just one click of a button and voila, instant Capo.

Kudos to Guitar Center, Mucisian's Friend and Line 6.

The Line 6 Variax Acoustic 700 Modeling Guitar gives you several acousatic guitars in one easy-to-carry case. 16 richly detailed acoustic-instrument sounds, phenomenal feedback-resistance, unique and intuitive tone-shaping options, and instant access to altered tunings. These next-generation electronics are housed in a beautiful and playable thin mahogany body with cedar top. Mahogany neck with rosewood fingerboard and pearl snowflake position markers. Output can be sent direct to a PA, recording device, or any standard acoustic amplifier. Like owning a studio full of fine acoustics! 24 medium-profile frets, 25-1/2" scale length, and 17" fingerboard radius. Digital I/O jack for Vetta II connectivity. Included direct box provides power plus 1/4" Standard guitar and XLR balanced outputs. Can also be powered by onboard batteries or Line 6's Vetta II amplifier. Includes custom 1/4" TRS cable.
