By now you probably have heard that Moog Music, known mainly for their legendary synthesizers, has decided to enter the guitar market. The Moog Guitar has e-bow sustain mechanisms built into each individual string for amazing sustain effects that were previously impossible. Oh yeah, and it costs almost $7,000 so you can believe that the guys featured in this video are among the 5 people in the world who can afford it...

Why must you show me these things Tom? I own an eBow but to have that on at will on the whole guitar without holding a device is insane. I want one bad.
A couple of comments:
* The current model is listed as the Paul Vo limited edition. Rumor is that a lower priced (by comparison) "studio" model without the AAAAA top, funky pick guard, gold hardware, and royalties to Paul is 6-9 months off.
* Moog is apparently making the electronics but the actual guitar is being outsourced to ???. The headstock looks faintly like the old Valley Arts/Samick guitars so maybe someone with a past in one of those companies is involved.
* I guess it helps to have a last name pronounced "read" to get your hands on one :)...I'm off to the courthouse to change my name this afternoon!
