What do you guys make of this?

Secondly, what do you mean I don't use the tone controls on my guitars? Of course I bloody do! I don't think I've met anyone who's played guitar for more than 2 months that doesn't tweak volume and tone pots. I mean, that's 14 year old bedroom stuff.
Listen to the sound samples on the site, if you wish... I can't imagine too many here being impressed.
Had to post this... I mean, the whole "use that tone control on your guitar much? ...didn't think so..." is laughable (to me).

First of all, this is not a product of mine and I am in no way behind this. They randomly sent me an email linking their site and FB page with some brief information... I have no affiliation with this company whatsoever, nor do I plan to have any now, or in the future.That tone control on your guitar...
...use it much?
Didn't think so...
Bring it to life with Black Ice, the battery-free on-board for your guitar or bass!
If you're like most players, there's a tone control on your guitar that rarely gets used. Now you can use it to dial in some fun with Black Ice, the amazing battery-free on-board overdrive.
Put Black Ice in your guitar and enjoy fingertip access to a variety of overdrive/distortion sounds. The Black Ice circuit can be configured for a touch of grit, a more aggressive grind, or a raw distortion that borders on 60s flavored fuzz. And with no batteries to worry about, Black Ice provides a lifetime of tone with no maintenance required, just like the tone control it replaces.
Black Ice is compatible with all (passive) pickup types including humbucking, Strat, Tele, P90 and lipstick style pickups.
Installation can be as easy as replacing the capacitor on your guitar's tone control with the Black Ice module. A variety of other wiring options are also provided for guitars with multiple tone controls and for those who prefer to access Black Ice via a switch.
