which signal?  The natural signal of a vibrating string?  clean it of
what? 

perhaps the signal of the pick-ups/electronics?  Is Gibson implying
that their guitars are inherently noisy?

I hope the cleaning of the signal is optional in this case.  Now, if
it isn't, I wonder what's the order: clean before distorting or the
other way around?

P.S.  Sorry for the waste of bandwidth.  I'm sure they're / will be
great instruments but at present the marketing catchlines aren't very
convincing.  Anyone tried this thing yet?
