Innovative Guitar products

What are the most innovative guitar products that have impressed you?
I mean the ones that you would OWN and USE.
In my book, the most innovative guitars I have recently played are by RKS (http://www.rksguitars.com) and John Suhr.
The RKS really departs for the standard bolt-on or glue-in neck designs with its' neck-through-body design - and it's a welcome change since it sounds so full with a nice crisp top end.
The Suhr is onviously a Fender inspired design - but imagine it done to perfection.
In terms of amps and effects, I have always been a fan of Mesa Boogie (http://www.mesaboogie.com), as I had considered the earlier Mark series designs to be the first "modeling" amps - in other words, while using tube designs, they were trying to emulate other amps (Fender; Marshall) as well as sculpting their own sound for a very recording and gig complete package.
Line 6? You bet - if Jeff Beck can use their products, so can us mere mortals.
Pro Tools? Of course.
Cakewalk software? Reason? Roland workstations? Acid drum loops? Yes, yes, yes, and YES.
Hot Hand motion controlled effects? Darn right.
