A neural stimulation and recording electrode assembly includes a selectively deformable guide tube. The guide tube includes a plurality of sequentially coupled connecting structures, wherein each connecting structure of the plurality of connecting structures has a respective central axis, and wherein at least one of the plurality of connecting structures is selectively deformable relative to the central axis of a sequential connecting structure of the plurality of connecting structures such that the central axis of the selectively deformable connecting structure is angularly oriented relative to the central axis of the sequential connecting structure. The electrode assembly further includes an electrode subassembly having a central axis and a plurality of electrode contacts that are configured for selective radial movement about and between a retracted position and a deployed position, wherein in the deployed position, and relative to the central axis, each electrode contact is spaced radially outwardly from the retracted position.
