wow what a bizaar concept, never seen anything like it but the sounds are very cool. Would have to know your stuff to even think about building this. Pretty cool there is a pedal for each of the inner 4 strings.

The biggest miracle about it was there was no noise/interference when the servos were engaged. Must have some major league shielding.

yer good point Fretty, he must have used a heap of copper shielding in the servo cavity

It's a very interesting concept, but why only on four strings. Maybe could have configured it so he could do 6 strings. I'd have looked at mounting then through the body, even if they came out the back.

Definitely unique! The concept isn't that hard but the building would have been tricky I reckon. You should be able to control some servos easily enough with an Arduino or PIC. But, no, I don't want to do it!
Loved his playing! I like that sort of smooth stuff.
might not be space to 6 servo's PK on a tele, who knows, the 4 servos looked pretty tight but sure there's a way to servo all 6 strings.
Think I'd rather route out a tremelo and use that instead but would be hard to get that smooth bending transitions

Maybe Wokka, I was thinking if they were side mounted through the body as alternate blocks through the hole he dug in the body.
Certainly no way of mounting them in a flat configuration.
