yup , as i also said before, .. its a great concept .. but the series of frets is pointless, as they would only match up on one correct spot on the scale . a single fret with a space to grab/slide would make more sense , and be more practical like a regular single contact slide .
also, as i mentioned before, .. maybe a set of stationary frets on the end where you most blues chords are played .. then the slider from there up .
don't get me wrong , .. i think its a great concept , and wonderful to see new ideas like this .
this one just seems to need a practicality polish to be a hit .
I`ve seen this a few times now and I think it`s a great idea but to be able to play it well I reckon you`re going to need to be a pretty decent guitarist in the first place.
You`re going to need to have a great ear to be able to find the sweet spot to stop the slide.There`s no obvious guide to follow, unlike a regular guitar that has fret markings to assist.
A beginner would be completely lost I`m sure so imho it will only be useful to an accomplished guitarist and, unfortuately, if you are accomplished why would you use this method?
A great idea, a great piece of modelling to get it to work but I`m not convinced it would be useable or marketable.

Hmm. I'd like to try that kind of set up on a 3 string.
About as useful as this.....http://handmademusicclubhouse.com/video/mojobone-works-the-electric...
Jeffery, it sounds good man, but what pick is saying makes total sense. Still a very cool build/playing.
