With hardshell case $5995...

One word: a monster... LOL

With THAT price tag, it must be a HOAX ;) I would rather go for the Good ol' SynthAxe..

But where's the "MB-Axe": Just modify guitar pickup with pot cored coil for each string, Lowpass filter each strings output for easier detection of the fundamental frequency, full wave rectify it for velocity, and a BIT of programming effort.. ;) Ok, I'm kidding, but not saying it couldn't be done!

Buy, Samppa

There are many wacky expensive midi controllers out there.  Thats why projects like the midibox are so cool.

Check out this overpriced controller.

That Zendrum seems to be used by some important and interesting people.
