My buddy has been looking into that, as he is a guitar player. Apparently Roland is really the only company that has a product on this, its a pickup that goes on the fretboard and converts the analog signal into MIDI. Check this http://www.rolandus.com/products/produc ... ductId=563

I also heard that a controller for Guitar Hero was released that has MIDI in/out...try searching for that. Its just like the other Guitar Hero/Rock Band controllers so don't expect realistic guitar playing, but MIDI capabilities nonetheless. Hope that helps a bit

You have a company called Star Labs that make amazing midi guitars http://www.starrlabs.com/products/ztars/z6-series/z6-s

Or cheaper, yahama made a practise guitar that works the same as the ztar but just cheaper not as good, http://www.amazon.com/Yamaha-EZ-EG-Digi ... B001PTKCIU
