At first glance the Misa Digital Guitar  looks like a futuristic guitar for a video game, however this is a uniquely different instrument. The  Misa Digital Guitar is a string-less Linux-powered MIDI controller that features 24 frets and a multifunction touchscreen. We need this now! Watch the video demo after the jump!

“In electronic music, the timbre (or color) of sound can be morphed in an infinite number of ways. For a guitar to accommodate this, the right hand needs more control than just plucking strings. You need to be able to control elements of the sound, such as sustain, pitch, filter cutoffs, contour or any other synthesizer parameter, in a way that has no physical constraints. There are no strings on this instrument. The right hand doesn’t pluck strings, it controls sound.”
