Teuffel Tesla Prodigy. Weird guitar. I want one.

looks like an incredible engineering job though how is this going to endear itself to any traditional guitarist other than being a wicked toy? ^^

Feedback and metal friction at the flick of a switch ?

Personally, I give this a freaking oh really owl along with a questioning face expression.

Imo a better setup would be a killswitch, sustainer/built in ebow and maybe like a link up to a midi control.

There are 7 and 8 string versions of this guitar around.

A button for 60 cycle hum. Genius.

You probably wouldn't want this for your average metal band, but David Torn has been using a Tesla for some years now, and other guitars with Tesla-inspired electronics, to create his off-the-wall loopscapes: david torn official site
