[looper's] production fretless guitar

[Daryl <highhorse@mhorse.com>]

hi, thought this might be of interest to David Beardsley and anyone else 
playing
microtonal music and/or fretless guitars.  I was at Guitar Center (yuk) the
other day and saw a Godin 12-string classical fretless!  The only time 
I've even
heard of someone playing an instrument like this is Pat Metheny, who used a
custom one on his live record from a year or two ago.  It sounds pretty
bizarre...I didn't get to play it, but I was imagining the fun someone 
could
have who's had experience playing fretless.  it's also got a plain finish
fingerboard, unmarked except for the edge; someone with a lot of patience 
could
construct a whole lot of mictrotonal scales and mark 'em out with chalk or 
a
grease pencil.

It's obviously begging to be used by people making unusual music...I'd 
love to
hear someone have some looping fun with it.

Here's the manufacturer's link.
