LAVA MUSIC BLUE LAVA

Touch and Go!

FOLLOW THE ERUPTING proliferation of smart-tech musical instruments and you'll most likely find Lava Music at the forefront of this molten integration. Last year's release of the innovative Lava Me 3 - the company's first smart guitar - with its eye-catching finishes, futuristic design and integrated touchscreen display with proprietary HILAVA operating system, proved that smart devices could seamlessly co-exist within a carbon-fiber instrument in a beneficial way. The only hiccup was that its price made it a challenging peak for those curious enough to explore its app-driven tools (which are primed for practicing and creating instant musical content) and on-the-go, player-friendly size. But now it seems Lava is determined to have its revolutionary instrument in the hands of seasoned players and tech-savvy consumers alike with the release of their eco-friendly Blue Lava guitar that includes the same HILAVA interface as its predecessor at a far more prudent price.
