What's your opinion on THIS?
 
Other than making your guitar neck look drunk that is!

That is pretty weird, Craigb.  I can see some people having a hard time with this.

I like the comment "it never goes out of tune".
 
CH's very own pro-luthier (Spacey) should comment on this. :)

That's if you include the Evertune system.  In fact, it was watching the demo videos for that that I came across the True Temperment stuff.
 
HERE'S/ that website.  Also interesting, but no trem version until 2015 (it's best use IMO).

My thoughts?
 
Well it's not new.
I haven't played one.
 
Does it solve tuning and playing issues that are results of players?  I can't see how it would.
Does it solve physical properties of the instrument that effect tuning? Maybe one but not all of them.
 
In the videos I heard; " It just sounds like to me" and when he demonstrated the distorted chord in a high register it didn't sound to me like I would agree with him on everything....and does one think that all the players will agree that it is the solution or better?
 
Can one tell by listening that a player is playing a true temperament neck?...I really doubt that.
 
So...I wouldn't spend time learning how to build that neck and I wouldn't spend extra money for it.
YMMV.
 
 I'm an opinionated butthead so I sure don't have reservations of commenting on this.
I appreciate that one would think or refer to me as a luthier but I'm not. I'm a player that attempts
building electric guitars.

Now I'm all embarrassed, humbled and...appreciative of the very kind words.

I'm a firm believer that if you want an instrument to always be absolutely perfectly in tune in all ways at all times WTF are you doing with a guitar?

I like buttheaded opinions.
 
I also don't think I could have a guitar neck that looks that ugly. 
(Maybe if I actually played the guitar more?)
