Casio Guitar Synth Built-in iPD Sound Generator PG-380

The PG-380 was Casio's top of the line synth guitar,   debuted in 1987. Features include an alder body, maple neck with an ebony 22-fret fingerboard, a Gotoh Floyd Rose-style (licensed) vibrato and a locking nut.

The electronics are quite impressive with neck and middle single-coils, and a bridge humbucker that is coil splittable by a push-pull switch on the tone control. The synth module features a Hex-pickup located by the tremolo, 64 built in tones, 12 buttons for controlling patches and octave, a 2-digit LED display, and two LED's for the built-in tuner. Controls include a five pole pickup selector with tone, guitar volume and synth volume. Multiple outputs include a MIDI-OUT connector, one mono output for guitar only and a stereo for guitar + synth. The synth can be set to send on six different MIDI channels, one for each string, or everything over one channel. Includes slot for additional ROM cards.

This rare guitar is if perfect working conditions. Some signs of use and paint tear are visible as shown on the pictures. A body repaint would fix them all but i prefer to keep it original. It sounds really great and many possibilities of sound are possible using both guitar and synth together. Midi output responds with really short lag so it it perfectly playable.


Guitar will be shipped together with its cabling including:

  • 1 professional super quality dual mono jack cable 5M long
  • 1 5M Midi cable
  • 1 Power supply 5M cable, with one and ready to connect to guitar and the other half ready to be soldered to your power supply chain.

With this cable set the PG380 is ready to express its best features as guitar/ synth/ midi controller.

Please ask for shipping rates before buying, i'll be happy to find the best shipping price for you.
