    Your reason/justifcation for buying more guitars? help!!

    Collecting guitars for fun. Thoughts?

    Best FracPad wireless midi interface

    I don't think the H&K interface will work because the MIDI IN is 7 pin / phantom powered and it is designed to work with the H&K Amp that powers the interface so there is no adapter required. :( And I think an adapter is needed on the Axe for pins 6-7 to pass through.
