Cordless Guitars

[King Duck]

I was brought to the Guitar Attack site as I had been searching for who invented cordless electric guitars and found the discussion about the micro fret FM cordless guitars.
I recall many years ago reading about a Swedish guitar band known as The Sputniks, I think, of the early 60's who performed in 'space suits' and, for that reason, one of their members came up with the first cordless electric guitars.
I don't recall much more about it though....

King Duck -- Not familiar with "The Sputniks", even though that is a really cool name.

The MicroFrets is a great guitar. There is not much information out there on the guitar, but it certainly has to be one of the first production guitars with a transmitter. Yes, your very own FM station.

Thanks,
John
