Hhahaha, this self tuning guitar falls into the same category as the car that parallel parks
itself at the puch of a button. I think these kinds of things are only for the very wealthy
and only reduce the ability of people to do what they should be trained to do.
In other words, if you relied upon your guitar to tune itself, you might eventually
lose your skills of detecting pitch using your hearing. If you rely upon your car to
parallel park itself, you mght eventually forget how to do it.

This reminds me. I need to learn how to tune my guitar. Had it for a year, and still haven't touched it.
