I see there is healthy interest on these boards for NST, but I have yet to find anything on applying multiscale guitars to the challenge.
While I have studiously avoided both in the past, now that I'm considering taking on NST as part of a project, it seems only logical to do so on a multiscale guitar, especially given the challenges posed by the range of tuning and the physical limitation of strings.
My quandry is that while I'm keen to acquire a new multiscale specifically for this project, I'm not keen to get into a £5k experiment which might not pan out as I hoped. Especially given that I'd be looking for a solution that would accommodate not only a trem, but potentially a piezo-based synth driver solution (e.g. RMC) and even some form of sustainer circuit. So my questions are:
1. Has anyone successfully used NST on a multiscale? If so, what were your lessons-learned and what would you recommend?
2. Has anyone even tried to apply a sustainer to a multiscale?
Dear Mods: I'm not sure if this is asking too much in one post, so I'm happy to take your guidance.
