The robot tiger is made of win. The robot guitar, not so much. It's a solution for which there is no problem - tuning a guitar just isn't that difficult or inconvenient.

ive never even messed with the intonation, i would be all like :erm: :?:
having said that i rarely tune my guitar either, it seems to stay generally in tune pretty well.
kinda off topic but i used to like tuning my guitar to like 435 hz or somethin. just like off from the standard 440...i have no idea why.

Not too off topic, since it was somewhat silly to begin with. On the off-standard tuning point, I've read that Led Zeppelin used to do the same.

I wonder if Gibson bought that tiger, or if it's a rental.

Here is a terribly quick and dirty pic of Gibson's latest follies, all together. A tiger with a robot head wearing a zoot suit.

Now that I think about it, it makes me kinda sad. :wha?:

You forgot to mention that it has since been impounded, because the body is built from illegally harvested endangered wood.
