Screaming USB ROCK for less than $100
We know that USB is perfect for Evil Robot Snowmen
and USB Thumbdrives
and of course the George Foreman iGrill… but were you aware that USB can ROCK! with a screaming speed-metal guitar solo? Neither did we, that is until we got our hands on this amazing iAXE USB powered electric guitar. Simply plug the iAXE into any available USB port, jack in some headphones and commence to rock using the included software which simulates different amps and effect pedals. The iAXE is a full size professional guitar so having some guitar playing skillz might help. [Overused joke about volume going to 11 omitted]
Important Notes:
- Windows XP users, be sure to install the included audio drivers on the installation CD for proper functionality.
- Requires headphones with 1/4″ stereo audio jack or use standard headphones with an 1/4″ adapter. (not included)
