Good Points

Well all these guitars in one unit, what can go wrong there you may ask!


Bad Points

Alternate tunings dont work the way they do with real instruments and I find myself using the tuners to detune rather than (the reason i purchased) using a switch and relaying on the software to tune. You cannot replace real guitars but unfortuatly I purchased both the electric and acoustic versions.


General Comments

I like the fact you can use a laptop to modify the sounds or build unique guitars but you loose the sustain and although it can sound kinda like a les paul it really cannot give off the same sustain. I know use traditional guitars for recording but uses these for messing around with. Hopefully oneday they will sort the software out and make it do what it says on the Ads.
