yes! roland sold the guts for their g- series guitar controllers seperately- (before the gk2 etc), saw it on ebay once- the circuit board, pickup, and 24 pin jack assembly- to combine this with the new moog technology in a guitar of my choosing would be too insane- a true Fripp killer. also, check this out

mark smart has officially blown my mind and modded the gr300 to have cv, gate, audio, and env follower outs for each string!! the gr300 can now control ANYTHING (well, his is the only one that can, but he's giving the schems to the world for free in the name of science). that, combined with the moogtar, is the most interesting musical possibility I can think of, no hyperbole.
think: the most perfect tracking guitar synth + infinite modular possibility + the realization of the infinite sustain guitar =
