Anyone ever used one and or know anyone who has ever used one?

Nope, but I was completely mesmerized by a couple YouTube videos of it the other day. I wonder how it works.

I don't even have an acoustic at the moment but I still want to play with one.

You got me man. I must admit this skeptic was quite shocked at what it did and I can't get my head around how it could vibrate wood to get the different sounds it did. I don't think it actually manipulates the signal.

I think it can vibrate the wood, like touching the base of a tuning fork to an acoustic guitar body.  A clip-on tuner uses a piezo to convert the string frequency resonating through the headstock into an electric signal.  If you apply an electrical signal to the piezo the process is reversed.  I would guess the unit is similar to a multi effects unit but just with piezo inputs and outputs. 

Cool post, thanks for sharing.

There was a very informative thread about this at DIYSB.  I will dig up the link.

Happened across the following video the other day and this thread reminded me of it.

May be similar but with delay and chorus too
