Seems like this design would have been better suited to a bass guitar. Four strings that are a lot stronger.

Seems unbelievably dangerous. Magnets that powerful pulling together right near where your picking hand is resting? Yikes.
Hah. I like that he basically reinvented the floyd fine tuner string adjustment system.
Should end the tonewood argument at least. The bridge isn't attached to the guitar at all and it still sounds like an electric guitar.

That would wreak havoc on the pickup magnet if it weren't ceramic...

I won't nerd out here, but the fact that magnets strength drops off based off the cube of the distance is crazy to me. This means that if you measure the magnetic pull of it 1 inch away versus 8 inches away (where the pickup seems to be) it has roughly 1/512th the strength

I suppose that's why it doesn't have a bridge pickup.
But then again... HOW WILL IT EVER CHUGG?!?!?!?!??!

True. But with a field that strong it might make a difference. Even a small neo mag can change the sound of an alnico pickup in mere seconds from several inches away. I've done quick & dirty degaussing/regaussing that way, a trick I learned on this forum I think, from Zhang.
