I'm tripping over the keys at the moment because I'm no longer used to having
them all in the right place, but it'll only take a few hours to be used to it
again.  It's one of the keyboards from before they put the extra keys on for
Windows95.

I bought a Sequential Circuits synthesizer/sequencer years ago, but I gave it to
my niece and I haven't seen it for about 15 years.  My sister was threatening to
bring it back, but I told her I don't have the space to put it and she should
sell it.  I prefer the sound of overdriving the output tubes in an amp to any
effects I've heard, so I didn't have much use for it.

Roland has guitar synthesizers, the GR-33 is an example, and you play through it
with a special pickup (that I assume is a hex pickup)
http://209.144.99.11/PRODUCTS/hardware/gr33.htm but I don't know if it can be
connected to a serious synthesizer with a midi connection or not.  I've never
used one.
