As you know, the Winter NAMM 2009 has just finished and there are tons of new products released. Here is one from Taylor guitars. Following up on last year's Taylor Solidbody guitar, which was absolutely beautiful, they have followed up this year with the ingenius pickguard swapping system which allows modding your guitar without soldering. I have changed pickups a couple of times and the heartache of threading the pickup wires through the cavities and frustration of soldering the pickups and finding out that they don't work can be too much for some. With this, no soldering, just remove the pickguard and replace it and you have a brand new guitar, in under a minute. Just check out the video below.

Here is a recently released video on the Gibson Les Paul Axcess. The guitar is loaded with Floyd Rose tremolo, 2 Burstbucker pickups, with coil tapping features. Scarfed neck to get to the high notes. Shredders, this is the Les Paul that was made for you. So go crazy with divebombs like Eddie Van Halen and Tommy Morello.
In the battle for the virtual guitar, you have the three big names duking it out. 1) The Fender VG Stratocaster is a regular Stratocaster but with an extra Roland pickup. It has 37 modes where you can choose what type of sound you want (single coil, humbucker, acoustic,....) and 6 tunings. If your battery runs out, there are always the three single coil pickups for those classic strat tone.

2) The Gibson Dark Fire is a continuation of the Gibson Robot guitar where you get the classic Burstbucker 3 humbucker for those classic humbucker tone, a P-90 pickup for those classic single coil tones and a Piezo pickup for more acoustic tones. With the Chameleon technology, you get more tones by mixing these pickups. It also comes with the auto tune and intonation technology so you don't need to fiddle with your tuners in the middle of the show. This ensures true organic tones.
It is due to be released 11th of December so book early. Gibson Dark Fire
3) Then comes the grand daddy of the virtual guitar. The Variax comes with a plethora of classic guitar tones and some other tones which are not to common, like the sitar. It can be switched with the foot controller and if you need to, can be transplanted to another body style supplied by Warmoth guitars. Check it out.
