So, someone decided to make a robot to play the guitar...we're just a little lazy I guess. I know that I've always wanted to play the guitar, that or bass guitar, or drums. If I knew how, I sure as hell would enjoy it, and not make a robot to do it for me, heh.

Although, the ladies will DEFINITELY get a kick out of him, with "fingering mechanism with an array of 23 fingertips is mounted over the first four frets of the fingerboard." Watch out ladies, here he comes to make you do the same!
