Riversong Tradition 2P GA Stage TP Guitar
Riversong Guitars has released the Tradition 2P GA Stage TP guitar , the company ’ s most technologically-advanced offering to date .
Riversong teamed up with Fishman Electronics and installed an OEM Triple Play wireless guitar performance / MIDI system . This makes the guitar like a touch-sensitive pad that can play any sample and interface with programs like Ableton Live or any MIDI device . The knob on the front works as a digital encoder and can control any parameter of the analog or MIDI signal by running the guitar output through a channel on a DAW . The Triple Play software can run on its own or operate as a VST plug-in .
The Tradition 2P GA Stage TP guitar is designed to look exactly like Riversong ’ s Trad 2P GA but with a twist . At less than 2-in . of depth , the guitar feels fast and the top is responsive and braced just like an acoustic . With adjustable neck angle and a new intonation system , the guitar is built for performing musicians .
