In my previous message, I wrote:

<< The guitar, simply by its own very nature, is already an almost 
infinitely more expressive instrument than the most expressive 
synthesizer out there.  >>

Just to clarify, I meant "the most expressive *keyboard* synthesizer out 
there".  I'm not referring to a synthesizer's overall tone palette, but to 
the keyboard's expressive possibilities as a real-time controller.  Velocity 
and aftertouch simply pale in comparison to the guitarist's bag of available 
expressive tools.
