All I know is that Alex Lifeson from Rush invented them, and I've always thought it would be a good thing to have around.

 

Here's a pic I took at the Gorge with him playing his classic O on one...

Location: Seacoast NH		Keller Williams uses these quite a bit. Seen him a few times, one man show, multi-instrument looping thing. He's pretty good.

Alex Lifeson is fantastic. Great documentary on Rush has been on one of the cable channels the last few months, can't remember which channel, but it was quite good. They never seem to get the credit they deserve as one of the most innovative bands ever.
