So.... does that mean it costs four times as much as a regular guitar and if you play it the warranty is voided and if it gets wet you throw it away?

Someone said it must be a Taylor - overpriced, underpowered, and favored by the sheeple.

Where do you plug in the earbuds so you can play it on the metro and pretend the crowd around you doesn't even exist?

Not at all !!!

That was the cover photo of Apples own invitation to todays product launch of entire revamped ipod line up just in time for xmas (they know a thing or two about marketing, cough cough).

Contrary to speculation based on the invitation photo they did not announce an iGuitar. Ovation sort of beat them to that punch. Although I bet if the iDea guitar came with white ear buds instead of grey it would sell a hell of a lot better.

Now that makes perfect sense. I stand corrected. Fifty lawyers will need to find work elsewhere.

Is that a green apple or red, maybe yellow. If it is green I think the Beatles Green apple studio will get a little bent, unless of course the all get free I pods, phones, I book, What more junk do they have that in a year or two will end up in a garage sale. I do like the guitar.

Apple Corps and Apple Computer settled their litigation about a year or so ago so everything is cool between them for now. All you need is love.

Too bad that whomever that was doesn't know their guitars...wrong bridge/wrong pickguard to be a Taylor...and probably never owned/played/gigged with one either...

...thereby giving full credence to the sheeple analogy of quick-to-outrage fanboys.

IT WAS A JOKE (and a clever one at that)

You gotta give Apple credit for creating and promoting it's fan base.

Much like Taylor, Apple produces a product that is not really any better than the competition...
BUT costs four times as much and the fans camp-out to buy it First.
(Even though it will be cheaper in a month)

Whereas I am an Ovation fanatic cuz I can get a Better Guitar for Less Money!

You ought to go to Apple's website and watch the videos about how they design and build the MacBook, particularly the case, the batteries and the solid state drives.

We had the use of MacBooks in seminary and they were linked to the iMac24 which is how I first saw one...The iMac is now the computer that my DAW resides in: Logic Studio w/Apogee Duet (hopefully upgrading to an Ensemble soon)...I likee!!! Also Toby raved about them here in the past...he was right! I have upgraded my computers (PC and Laptop) to HP and Dell (i7 processors each - Windows 7) and I am finally glitch free for the first time in 2 years...

g8r: I know it was a joke...it's not going to change my mind...I've been down that road many, many times here...lol

Duet's a great sounding audio interface.
