Thinking about selling my Little Phatty to get a Moog guitar
Thinking about selling my Little Phatty to get a Moog guitar
What do you think?
If your a guitar player, by all means do it !!! I had the pleasure of experiencing one first hand at Moog last week (ummm, watching Jason playing it) and all I can say is WOW!
My first comment was "this thing makes me wish I played Guitar". Technical design, fine.. it's a scientific masterpiece, it is versatile as the day is long and sounds great, but the finish and craftmanship, especially the signature maple top models is absolutely beautiful.
If you are just a keyboard noodler (as I am; that meaning that I'm a bass player by trade but am all set with my '75 Fender J-Bass reissue), then jump off and get this guitar.
I asked Jason if it was difficult to pickup with all of the new features/options/switches/etc of fancy pickups and he said yes, it was a bit intimidating at first.
The videos on YouTube of NAMM, etc. do not give the instrument justice. I'd hate to steer anybody away from an LP because I think it's absolute greatness in a small package but the Moog Guitar costs $$ and if you've got one skill and it happens to be Git-ar, go for it !!

I think just because a lot of people really treasure their LP.Bryan T wrote:Lots of votes for "bad idea." Hmm.
I say pick whichever one you will get most use out of... its a shame you couldnt just keep both.
Moog Voyager RME / Moog LP SE 2 / Nord Rack 1 / Microkorg / Korg ER-1 / Triggerfinger / Rocktron Banshee talk box / Ableton live / Guru / Lots of non-electric musical instruments.
