I played with one a little bit last weekend, unamped, and it felt pretty darn good for a $100 guitar. I was wondering if anyone here had hooked one up to a VG,...
I recently played a small scale strat, I don't know it was a junior model per se, but I was schocked at how good it sounded and felt!! Steve ... From:...
I used to own a Parker Fly Classic. Pre- U.S. Group, Tomato red, fastest neck I have ever played. Had to sell my guitar collection, that was one of the ones I...
I'm also a bit of a Belew fan. Parker guitars are the finest electric guitars I've tried. However, I hope they come out with a more affordable MIDI guitar...
Nice article. Thanks for posting the URL, Moonie. Makes me want to do more elektronika, which is cool. Cheers, Michael ________________________________ From:...
moonie, ... Yeah, it probably would make a pretty good $100 guitar.... The first 5 hits in Google that lead to stores all have it listed for $350 to $370. ...
This is my first post on this forum. I have a solid-body electric mandolin, an Epiphone "Mandobird." Most of you are probably aware of them, but in case you...
Great to know you liked it. Which URL made you want to do more elektronika: the Belew interview or the link in my sig, to the movie about the drum loop? ...
I'd be interested in seeing the ideas you gather on this forum about MIDI-fying that Mando. I'm guessing you'll probably have to go with a piezo-based pickup...
I'd be interested in seeing whatever "Continuum" is, if you have a link or two, but my Google search is turning up lots that isn't related. I took a look at...
Nope, new, and there are 2 of 'em, one black, one red. Firehouse Guitars, Decatur, Georgia. I reckon I'm not going to get one, since I'm so into VG technology...
It's a midi controller "keyboard", which allows realtime continous control in three dimensions for every finger that is placed on the playing surface ...
Oh, yeah! I remember seeing that linked in this list, or a similar one, not too too long ago. Thanks! Now that I see it again, it sorta reminds me of the...
moonie, ... Look for them to be the subject of a Fire Sale, real soon now! <lol> If they're buying at cost, which is nominally about half of MSRP, and turning...
... Are you talking about someone at Firehouse? I don't know those guys; it's a kinda new store and I just popped in for some picks last weekend. ... Hmm,...
It doesn't look as if Sound Garage do a Bass version - at least, not fromtheir web site. I guess it depends on the string spacing of your Mandobird compared to...
moonie, ... By way of explanation, the JitB Clown-face was on the phone to his company accountant (Alan, whom we never saw), telling him that he was gonna...
bg, The link you gave was dependent on your browser session cookie, which of course, is null and void for the rest of us. Sure, it's nice to try and save...
... Kyma has been around for a while. John Paul Jones used it on his solo work. I think it sounds like an effect rather than an instrument per se. It's like...
I'd check w/ the Zeta violin people: http://www.zetamusic.com/ Although they specialize in midi for bowed instruments, they might have a good idea for how to...
MoonCaine: Actually, the string spacing is the same as some of the narrower electric guitars. The bridge is basically a tele design with standard tele...
Greetings, If I remember right, in the late '80's - early '90's Shadow Pickups made divided pickups for most popular stringed instruments, including the mando....

I think you can angle the GK pickup, but how much, I don't know. I angled it a bit to make it suit my current axe, a Tele copy, and it's working great, but if...
Hi All ... Then, as Moonie and others have suggested, you should be able to use saddle pickups, just fitting four saddles. It'll definitely work that way. What...
i All, Off topic because it's not MIDI. Has anyone tried the EHX Hog? How does it rate as a guitar synth? I am wondering how they make it track chords without...
http://www.d-tar.com/mama_bear.shtml Has anyone used one of these on their piezo bridges? If the video samples are anything to go by, it's quite an intriguing...
My favorite demos are by Edmund Eagan (click "Examples" on the Continuum site). I like his plucked sounds in particular. By no means did I intent the Kyma and...
