That's for now. Let's not forget that the Fishman has been polished and improved a lot in the last year. It's not a Beta product anymore. MIDI Guitar still is

Totally agree with you. That's why the upcoming MIDI Guitar v0.8 will supposedly transmit MIDI data on a different channel for each string. Again, let's give Jam Origin a chance to bring their product out of Beta.

So basically, if you want to have a great Guitar-to-MIDI system that works very well and is available NOW: get the Triple Play. If you don't mind waiting a few months (years?) to see what other alternate system will bring (aka MIDI Guitar): then wait…or buy MIDI Guitar and have some fun NOW

What I do believe will happen eventually is that the software approach will win, after all it has in all other areas of music productions (drums/piano/strings/synth/brass VSTs, DAWs, etc, etc) hardware is only necessary when software solutions have not been invented/perfected yet. (aside from the hardware necessary to run the software, of course)
