Thanks for purchasing The Moog Guitar. Its invention by Paul Vo is the result of years of research and technical

breakthroughs, some of which would not have been possible even a few short years ago. This may be your ﬁ rst

Moog instrument and we hope you will ﬁ nd that it meets the deﬁ nition of a Bob Moog product; superior quality,

an investment that will give back to you more, much more than you put into it, and an inspiration to the creative

process.

Thanks for placing your trust in Moog Music.

Introduction

We started out by crafting a great guitar. The “Moog” name could not go on just any guitar. The guitar had to be

a professional instrument of the highest quality. Of course, simply placing our name on a great instrument was

just the beginning. Next, and in the tradition of Bob as a musician’s toolmaker, we created an instrument that

brings ﬁ ve new tools to the ﬁ ngertips of the guitarist:

1. Inﬁ nite, powerful, and controllable sustain on every string at every fret position.

2. Rich, sweet and clean harmonics shifting and evolving under your control.

3. Controlled sustain - sustains the notes you want to sustain and mutes the strings

you want muted. No special playing technique is needed. Plays smooth and easy.

4. Powerful muting of the strings opens up a whole new world of punchy staccato

- the Moog Guitar is suddenly a completely new instrument!

5. Overlaid with each of the above, the player controls the famous Moog ladder ﬁ lter

- switch it in or leave it out; dial in resonance and control the cut-off frequency with

the control pedal.

It’s easy to get started, the learning curve is minimal. An experienced guitarist can

begin crafting new and previously unimaginable soundscapes in just the ﬁ rst few

minutes. However, there is much to discover over time because the Moog Guitar

makes many new things possible.

We encourage you to initially turn off your ampliﬁ er and just listen to the strings and

feel their vibration. It is enlightening. We’ve found this is the best ﬁ rst step to really

connecting with this instrument.

A strong aspect of our design philosophy was that the Moog electronics should

work together with the basic nature of the guitar rather than overwhelming it. Your

instrument is real, not virtual. That means each guitar has its own unique heart and

character that can never be completely deﬁ ned. It awaits your creativity.
