Mmmmm... no. These are wood box guitars designed for fingersylists. Am I missing something?

I'd be greatly interested to see how these compare price-wise with what we play...just goes to show you that great ideas eventually do get acknowledged.

Didn't you read the part about the round back, same principle as in the O's!

This is not so much blinding with science as baffling with bullshit. The behavoiur of soundwaves is incredibly complex, way beyond the scope of marketing blurb and a few little diagrams. To state that "A flat back instrument channels vibrations only horizontaly" is absolute garbage and is a total misrepresentation of the physics of a stringed instrument with a soundbox, regardless of shape. The whole thing is misleading, in fact it's just plain wrong.

What would you expect from a guitar company named after a cat that did "9-Lives" commercials?? . . .
