"Here we have a COMPLETE Roland 24 pin guitar synth package. All you have to do is add your own guitar and with no mods you will be controlling the best sounding and fastest tracking analog guitar synth ever made. All of the gorgeous analog guitar synth sounds from the 80's are locked inside the GR-300. From Andy Summers' work with The Police in the early 80's (listen to the synth part in "Don't Stand So Close To Me"), to Robert Fripps and Pat Metheny's virtuoso use of the unit, to the synth solo in Don Henley's "Sunset Grill". These are the more widely known sounds of the unit. The possibilities with the GR-300 are vast... This package includes the GK-1 pickup in it's original box with it's original manual and all of the original accessories for attaching it to your guitar. The GK-1 is easily installed in minutes and is used to connect directly to the GR-300 or to control the GM-70. The GM-70 when connected to the GK-1 can be used to control ANY midi device right from your guitar. I use mine to control my Oberheim OBXA to good effect. With this package there is no need to purchase one of Roland's 24 pin guitar controllers to gain access to the world's best analog guitar synth. This is a COMPLETE package and nothing else is needed...

The demo starts at the 5:37 mark."
