The VP-1 is a six string guitar - tuned 'normally' - but with a HUGE difference...
"NEW SCHOOL" : RETHINKING THE SIX-STRING
THE EXPANDED AND CURVED FRETBOARD
It's really very simple -- extremely cool -- and super easy to understand:
You can also bend guitar strings outward...
Like this...
NOTHING HAS CHANGED - AND EVERYTHING HAS CHANGED...
The new convex profile 'super' fretboard lets you reach an entire matrix of note positions that are simply not possible to attain on a conventional straight guitar neck.
This means:
You can find new sounds - 'new notes' - and new string-bend combinations when the frets are extended and strings are bent away...
RIFF IT UP...! ...!
OUTWARDPOWER BENDING
The DEVIL is in the details...
VP-1 super guitar prototype - the very first of its kind.
THE ADVANTAGE
YOU CAN: WRITE NEW MUSIC AND CREATE NEW SOUNDS THAT CAN NOT PHYSICALLY BE PERFORMED ON A STRAIGHT-NECKED GUITAR
BEND THE RULES
OUTWARD or DOWNWARD STRING "PULLING": - Create new and unique solos, chordal and double-stop bends... anything you can imagine....
