Interesting indeed.... looks like a total bitch to use though... unless you have a lot of patience!

With your interest in Indian classical music you most probably have heard of Shawn Lane already, but here it is none the less...

I met Tolgahan in person at Rotterdam Conservatory and was allowed to play the instrument he is playing in above post (after he played us a couple of very beautiful microtonal folk songs).... i totally loved it.

There's been a small surge in microtonal guitars in the electric realm the past couple of years. More and more guys picking them up and experimenting. Kind of like when 7 and 8 string guitars first hit.

It doesn't get any better than Shawn Lane. Hard to believe he's been gone for 10 years.

Rod Poole played a guitar which had been refretted in the intonation of a Pythagorean scale/set of intervals which is also found in Persian music.



The picture above is a reproduction of his guitar.

Unfortunately, there's no real Rod Poole guitar on Youtube or online. He made two solo albums each with one track, each over 45 minutes long, both out of print.
