What's this mini-guitar Steve Vai plays here? I'm VERY curious about that... toy. Any idea, guys?

Well, it looks it's a Phased Systems D'Mini guitar. Steve Vai has a photo of it on his site:

There's a thread on TGP talking about them. Frank Zappa is mentioned there:

Wow - usually the shorter than normal scale guitars seem to sound goofy but that sounds great. I will attribute that more to Steve than the guitar but still...

I wish I had long spider fingers so I could reach around the fretboard better. I wonder if playing a tiny guitar is the equivalent of playing a normal guitar with longer fingers.

Yes, tiny guitars are for tiny hands!
