in case you haven’t seen it anywhere else yet, here’s lou reed and others getting their hands on the new ‘moog guitar’…

The Moog Guitar offers three unique modes…Sustain, Mute and Controlled Sustain. In the Sustain mode, it provides infinite, powerful sustain on every string and at every fret position; Mute removes energy from the strings, resulting in a variety of staccato effects; Controlled Sustain allows the musician to play sustained, single-note or even polyphonic lines with strong sustain and effortless clarity. In this mode, the Moog Guitar sustains the notes being played while actively muting the notes not being played.

it uses - wait for it - Moog Guitar Electronics! its not a synth, or a midi controller, just a guitar with some messed up insides. from music thing.
