This Zoybar thing looks pretty cool, even if I’m not sure I understand fully what their goal is. At the very least, it looks fun. Sort of like Lego Mindstorm for guitarists?

Here’s a description from the about page at Zoybar.net:

Zoybar is a unique platform for developing innovative music instruments and effects.
The Zoybar components provide research and development tools as a sustainable, playable prototype platform. The same modular parts can be assembled as different instruments, can be change during the performance and also be mounted with numerous special effects, just by adding and changing their position across the profile groves.

Check out the videos to see for yourself. It looks like everyone builds basically the same guitar and plays with that nifty touchscreen effects-box/guitar-body thing called the Kaos Pad. Or maybe I’m not getting something…
