Moog Takes the Electric Guitar Into a Brave New World!
Forget everything you know about the guitar — the Moog Guitar Model E1 M just took it to the next level! The sounds you can conjure are otherworldly, but there's absolutely no modeling involved; every sound is a direct result of the Model E1 M's onboard electronics. The controls of this innovative instrument put decidedly uncommon guitar tools, such as a ladder filter, at your disposal, for synthy Moog-like sounds. Plus, you can generate endless sustain on single notes and chords at the flip of a switch — and a MIDI output! Or, go the other way with it and cause the strings to be instantly muted for a cool percussive effect. The bridge (choose tremolo or fixed) houses piezo elements, giving you even more sonic options.
The Moog Guitar Model E1 M is definitely no one-trick pony. It's designed to be played by the best musicians as their primary axe. Though it's great for many styles and tones, this instrument's onboard Moog Guitar Electronics system really does open up a whole new musical vocabulary for you, with infinite, powerful sustain at every fret position. You can also select a controlled sustain mode, which allows you to play single lines without muting technique; it sustains the notes you are playing while actively muting the notes you are not playing. Cool, right?
As if the sustain and muting technology onboard the Moog Guitar Model E1 M weren't enough, here's more: you can control either resonance or the frequency of the built-in Moog ladder filter using the included foot pedal. And the MIDI output really takes things to an entirely new level. Why not strum your Moog Model E1 M and control your Moog synth at the same time? Why not run a crazy cacophony of MIDI gear that sings at your command. When you're ready to explore a new sonic frontier, you're ready for the Moog Guitar Model E1 M!
