Midi Guitar Under $300 New?

[conor1148]

hey everyone!

i hate not posting a big elaborate question when im completely dumbfounded like i am now, but really theres not much i know to ask.

is there any good, new, Midi system (pickup and whatever ill need to go between the guitar and my computer) under $300 for everything? im looking at fixing up the jackson i have, and it looks like the cheapest midi system is graphtech's ghost (which is a tad too pricy).

any help is appreciated!

Piezoelectric saddles are a good way to go, ghost systems have really good reports. These things cost and it isn't just a pickup either. The benefits of the ghost thing also is you are gettiing a top line electro-acoustic sound also. What is it that you want to do with it?

Other alternatives are things like a roland GK pickup controller...these seem to come up second hand, they are magnetic hex pickups like a strip that fit just in front of the bridge.

You may need a midi interface of course and there can be all kinds of latency issues.

Making these things seem to be pretty much out of the question, so I'd abandon looking at that avenue personally.

For much less of course you could get a keyboard to input midi data and generally a more practical and reliable method.

Non-response generally means there is no answer to questions like these and not quite enough detail....especially when it just comes down to a price without details of the guitar you want it on, or how you plan to use the things...
