Warr Guitars is a company that manufactures the Warr Guitar, which is a musical instrument developed by Mark Warr that looks very much like a standard electric guitar, but can be played with two-handed tapping techniques, like a Chapman Stick, as well as strummed and plucked. Traditional bass guitar techniques, such as slap and pop, pizzicato and playing with a plectrum (pick) may also be used. Because of the unique placement of the strapholders, the instrument may be played in a more upright, Stick-like position, or horizontally, like an electric guitar.

The instrument is strung and tuned in a variety of ways. It may be built with anywhere from seven to fifteen strings. The strings may be arranged such that the lowest is in the center of the fretboard or the lowest string is nearest the player. The fretboard may be fretted, fretless, or a combination of the two. The instrument is built with custom-designed Bartolini magnetic, piezoelectric, or a combination of these pickups. If piezo pickups are used, onboard MIDI electronics may also be added, to allow the player direct triggering of Roland or Axon synths from their instrument. The neck is constructed of multiple, quartersawn laminates of varying thickness. Instruments built with ten or more strings have two embedded, dual-action truss rods and dual 1/4" outputs.
