yeh, they were played by dave navaro and reeves gabrels and marketed to be the guitar of the future in the late nineties and now i don't even see them anywhere(not even at guitar center). anyone ever get a chance to play one of those? are they even worth what they go for or are they just another gimmick guitar?

My guitar player plays one. I like it, it definitely stands out and it's pretty versatile. Sure, the thing can't make you sound like you're playing a Martin D-45, but for live settings it's pretty good.

They're supposed to be really nice, never played one though.

I kow a few guys that play them, they sound pretty good. I know the big attraction is they weigh about 4 lbs...super light.
