Behold, the roadie killer! No. not several bottles of cheap cider and a judicious pile of pharmaceutical¬strength drugs - the Gibson Les Paul Robot Guitar. Nestled among the usual tone and volume dials is a magical control that lets you choose your tuning. Make your choice, press the centre of the knob and strum.

In about five seconds, micro-motors in the tuning pegs will wind the strings to their correct pitch, and you're ready to rock. Indicators in the back of the headstock let you know if the strings are still in tune and the guitar can store more unusual tunings so you can impress your artrock friends. Roadies around the globe are hanging up their patch-covered leather jackets and Access All Areas lanyards at this very moment.
