Hexfuzz (was Re: Fretless MIDI guitar)

I think that is the point of the PolyOctave, but I could be wrong.  
Speaking of
Hexfuzz, some of the most beautiful fuzzy tone comes from Matthais' little 
self
made box.  I don't know much about it, but the tone he gets is pretty 
amazing.
I wonder why he hasn't tried to commercially produce it.
