Just read this short article by Rebecca Dirks of Premier Guitar:
Ernie Ball Music Man Game Changer
Yes, I watched the hype videos and read the press materials, but seeing the Game Changer in action was not something I’ll soon forget—and not just because it was presented by guys in Hendrix and Elvis costumes. The guitar’s tonal range is impressive before it’s plugged into a computer—among other things, you can save totally analog presets to each position on a 5-way switch—but it’s even more astounding once you access the software and adjust tones in real time. With a USB cord and a click of a mouse, pickups go in and out of phase. Or you can pull up one of the many available artist presets and scroll through their tones. The mind-blowing part is that none of it is digital—this is not modeling, it’s real-time analog circuit adjustment via a computer. I can’t say I understand how they pull it off, but they absolutely do.
