I found this, now im even more interested

And, the more I think about it, the more I think I should learn to edit video and make my own YouTube channel.

I play better than almost everyone I've seen making their own YouTube videos - and the few that are as good as I am are so close that I think I'd give 'em a run for their money.

I was pondering this last night, before going to sleep.

They could be using springs and resonating chambers. The springs have sympathetic vibrations like your strings have sympathetic vibrations.

Though he refers to it as digital. Which, frankly, kinda makes sense. I mean, those are variable knobs - pots if you will - that have to be hooked to something and I'm willing to bet a dollar that they're not connected mechanically to anything.

I was thinking they might have a speaker of sorts inside the guitar body.

It's gotta be something. I have a hard time thinking there's no electronics involved in that. You can do a lot with springs and resonating chambers - but those are typically huge.

And, buggered if I know what I'd do with a semi-hollow 7 string guitar. It's not like I'd be covering anyone with it.

Also...

Something strange has happened since deciding to start this cheap guitar project...

I haven't been this excited about playing guitar in a long, long time. I'm legit excited. Normally, I ignore the whole community but I've probably watched 60 hours of video and done another 100 hours of research.

I'm legit excited about playing guitar again. Not a little excited - super excited.

Also, I meant to send this hours ago (I did not go for a drive today):

I've seen a lot of guitars in my time. Many of 'em can be justified for existing.

Now, who wants a semi-hollow body Gibson ES-335 clone - with seven strings?

I can't think of a single (real world) use for owning that guitar - unless it's to make your own music on, or to modify covers. 'Cause a 7 string guitar is almost exclusively metal - which this guitar is decidedly not.

On the other hand, it's $250.

Firefly is another of those 'good' cheap guitars.
