Guitar synth is great! That's my opinion. i takes some getting used to
and the model you want will depend on what you want to do with it. I
bought a GR-50 years ago because I wanted a rack mounted unit. It's
internal sounds are nearly useless but it's external MIDI capability
shines when used with modules suck as a Korg Wavestation and an Oberheim
Matrix-1000. I've stayed away from the stomp-pedal models because
they seemed to be made for playing internal sounds only and most of those
sounds seemed to be rather bland general-midi type sounds.
What you should do is find a music store that has one on the floor to try.
Take it for a test drive. Ask if you can connect it to some top-notch
synth modules with the kinds of sounds you are interested in.
