Mainly because you have to set them up to work in one of two modes.  One 
mode just tracks the regular notes you play, and in most cases works just 
fine. The other lets you also bend notes and sends out pitchbend messages, 
but it's very fidgety and not as predicable as I would like. 
Unfortunately, it's this second mode that interests me the most, as that's 
just the way I play (lots of bends and slides).  Even after spending a lot 
of time setting up the convertor and tweaking it just so, I couldn't play 
as naturally as I would like.  Instead of opening up possibilities, it 
seemed to be restricting me.

It's cool,don't get me wrong, but if I'm going to spend thatamount of 
money, I want it to be as seemless as possible.  The only option I haven't 
tried yet, but have been recommended repeatedly, is the Parker MIDI Fly 
guitar.  I LOVE Parker guitars, but the MIDI Fly is just soooo expensive, 
and I can't justify the cost yet.

Why aren't you happy with the guitar to midi convertors? I've always been 
interested in getting one but never got around actually getting one...
