When we first caught word of the gTar, it was a bit of a mystery, with an online presence amounting to little more than a low-res press shot, an enigmatic YouTube teaser and assorted specs coming out of South By Southwest and various investor sites. This week, however, brings TechCrunch Disrupt to town — and Incident Technologies has braved some unseasonable New York City storms to come along for the ride. We managed to snag some time with the iPhone-docking instrument ahead of its debut on stage this afternoon. Details are still a little scarce — but here’s what we know: the company is looking for a summer release for the educational instrument. In the meantime, Incident has thrown up a Kickstarter page, so you can get in on the action. A limited number of investors can get their hands on a unit for the low, low donation price of $350, once it goes into production. That’s $100 off the estimated $450 retail price point — not cheap, sure, but there are a couple of things to note here. First, we played with the gTar for a bit and we can say, definitively, that this isn’t just some cheap, plasticky toy — this feels like a real, amateur-level electric guitar. Also, for whatever it’s worth, that price also includes a backpack carrying case — so that’s something, right? Follow along after the break to get some fingers-on impressions.Gallery: gTar hands-onContinue reading gTar iPhone guitar hands-ongTar iPhone guitar hands-on originally appeared on Engadget on Mon, 21 May 2012 15:21:00 EDT.
