You might have heard or seen the Air Guitar that uses digitalize string to play melodies. But Misa Digital Guitar is more than just an Air Guitar. Beside it has a string-less design, Misa Digital Guitar is simply the coolest digital guitar of the era.

Made by a clever guy in Sydney, Australia, this Misa Digital guitar has a wide touchscreen area where it can hold your hand with full fingers stretched. The creator is aiming for a simple and effective instrument where it could provide a minimalistic guitar interface while it still can let user feel like playing a string guitar.

Misa Digital Guitar will help newbie learn guitar with less pain on their fingers (or the pain is actually lifted) thanks to the string-less design. And the most surprising fact for this Misa Digital Guitar is the Linux-Powered (linux Gentoo 2.6.31) and a MIDI controller.

The only downside that you might found is the Misa digital guitar will rely badly on a dedicated MIDI compatible sound module. Without the sound module, no sound would be created.

Watch the following video for more detail:
