The Mukatu Guitar

The Mukatu Guitar is a special guitar designed by WikiMan. Its design is inspired by the guitar used and designed by american electronic-rock artist Mukatu and built by GuitarTechPete. Aside from being capable to be played like a conventional guitar, it is capable to play samples and other sounds.

Features
Note that these features are based on the design's first version.


 * Headstock - The headstock's design is similar to that of an acoustic guitar. And like such, it has the typical function of holding the strings and allowing the tuning of the strings.


 * Fretboard - Its function and design are pretty much like that of a guitar, no matter if acoustic or electric.


 * TheRealPad - A built-in MIDI controller consisting of 16 trigger pads lined up in 2 horizontal rows sitting next to the strings on the guitar's body. When "triggered", they can play audio samples that can be loaded using DAWs like Ableton or ProTools. Its design is similar to that of Korg's NanoPad instrument.


 * Walls Osc - Similar to the Kaossilator, this touchpad-based unit can produce a variety of sounds, produce a continuous music loop and be tuned to numerous keys and scales. Its key feature is the "Walls OS" that has numerous functions, such as a "Pattern Looper" that reproduces and generates various loops, both instrument and sample-based, and a "Set BPM" option that also has a metronome sub-function. It can switch between the "independent mode" -that generates sounds by itself- and the "dependent mode" -effecting the guitar's sound, which is a function similar to that of Matt Bellamy from Muse-.


 * Knobs - There are two knobs on the guitar's body. One of them is the volume knob, while the other knob is the tune knob.
