Two buttons on the generator allow you to assign different instruments to beams while you are playing.

Innovative Gadgets: Axe Guitar



A guitar that too in Axe shape is brilliant and innovative idea. A guitar in itself is ultimate cool gadget but if it comes with unique shape like of Axe then it becomes even cooler. The guitar has a bi-directional strum bar, ultra responsive fret buttons, and an analog whammy bar. What does that mean? I have no clue because I don’t know anything about playing guitar. Every year I make resolution to learn guitar but it never happens. I think my neighbors are somehow plotting against it. So this Axe shape Guitar is very good option for people like me. If anyone comes between me and my Guitar lesson I can chopped them.
