a hand-held, battery-powered, electronic bow for guitar. It gives a spacey kind of feel to the guitar. Its about like a slide ...but obviously different

I tried my buddy's, it's hard to use because I really couldn't control it. I'd like to get my own, practice and get it into my act but I totally forgot about it until this pick post.

I think the point behind the name is that you can make the guitar sound like a violin = bow.

Have you used marble or stone picks? I've seen these and I can't imagine them being used for any other than a bass. But who knows?

true...but for someone who hasn't seen or heard it before...the magnet is probably a better visual description...and the bow is a better sound description.

Hey Andy...are you a Coldplay fan?
