GIBSON RELEASES SELF-TUNING GUITAR

So it’s come to this; Gibson has released a self-tuning guitar, which according to a Reuters report [via Idolator] is “aimed at amateurs who have a hard time keeping their guitars in tune, as well as professionals who now use technicians during concerts to keep about 100 guitars tuned to different keys.” The guitar will not only tune itself after string changes but will also allow players to access six non-standard tunings at the push of a button.

So in addition to auto-tuned vocals, we now have this atrocity. Now if only they’d make a version for what really matters — Guitar Hero — we’d be all set.
