Gerry, USB has been in guitars for many years as a means of connection and in and of itself is not proprietary in any sense. Behringer and Brian Moore are just two examples of companies who have used it as a feature on their instruments. Perhaps you're referencing Gibson's proposed method of transferring multiple channels of high quality audio via Ethernet and is called Media-accelerated Global Information Carrier, or MaGIC. The flagship model is the Les Paul HD6X-Pro. I do not work for any of the companies listed above, btw.

Horrible place to put the USB connector! That port will break in a very short time. They needed some more R&D to create a more robust connection scheme.
