The midi functionality on this PG-380 is not operational and needs repair. The Guitar is in good cosmetic condition and plays great.These guitars were made by Ibanez for Casio using high end components and is a great ‘strat-like’ guitar even without the added synthesizer electronics. PG-380 guitars sold for $1500 when new in 1987. What makes this guitar unique is that you do not need any external electronics or computer to generate the tones. The tones are internally generated and go straight to your amp. Unlike the Roland synth guitars that require a 13 pin connector to connect to external electronics and then out to your amp. The PG-380 was way ahead of its time when first introduced. Built-in Hex pickup. MIDI capable. Onboard synth tones (64), expandable with RAM / ROM cards. On the front, there is a synth control panel. On the panel there are 12 small buttons for controlling patches and octave shifts, a 2-digit LED display, and two LED's for the built-in tuner. Strat-wise there is a five position pickup selector (1 humbucker and 2 single coil pickups) and controls for tone, guitar volume and synth volume. Apart from a normal 5 pin DIN MIDI-OUT connector there is one mono output for guitar only and a stereo out for guitar + synth. The synth can be set to send on six different MIDI channels, one for each string, or everything over one channel.Serial # T005008Made in Japan Weight 8 lbs 14 ozItem will be professionally packed, shipped and insured to guarantee safe arrival The item pictured is the one you will be receiving.No additional accessories included. **BUY WITH CONFIDENCE****FREE SHIPPING WITHIN THE UNITED STATES** Tone House Studios has new Guitar and Recording Studio gear being added every week!!
