Hi Mike, You want a standard MIDI out, right? Casio made a guitar that had that. You can find them used. I've seen them at the Guitar shows. $500-600 from what I remember. http://jpsongs.com/troubadortech/casmgtr.htm I don't know of any pickup units that will do that. What you can do is get a GK2A pickup and a GI20 MIDI/USB interface. You're looking at about $550 for the set. I played with a Brian Moore iGuitar into a GI20 into a MAC running Finale and it tracked really well. Nice setup. I wound up getting a Brian Moore and I'm saving my pennies for the GI20. Much nicer than the GR50 I have now.
