Here’s an iPhone Guitar!! Japan-based Bird Electron announced the Ezison 100 yesterday. I suppose its in the shape af a guitar and you strap it on!
It is speaker for the iPhone (or iPod touch) that’s supposed to turn those devices into some kind of electric guitar. The Ezison 100 is (hand)made in Japan, with Bird Electron saying they used mainly wood and acrylic fiber in the production process.
Users are supposed to place their iPhone into the speaker’s housing and connect it with the speaker through the headphone jack. You can then run a guitar app on your iPhone (possibly jailbroken), for example “pocketguitar,” and pretend to be a real guitarist.
You can only get the speaker on Bird Electron’s Japanese website. (Not sure what only get the speaker means). It will go on sale on January 30 and is limited to 50 units. Cost $290 US Dollars! I am trying to imagine its use. If it sounds good (depends on the app I guess) impress a friend with something different. Make up a new melody. New stage act!
