    Is a GK-2A any good? I think there’s one in the shop I work for... although it may or may not be bundled with a GR-50, I can’t remember.

    The GK-3 has some slight changes from the 2A but I would be happy with either if offered. I have a Roland GR55 which came with a GK-3B and works great fitted to one of my basses. I want to put a guitar GK pickup on a Sterling Silhouette I own too.
    would you be able to find out whether the GK-2A is available on its own and how much it costs?
    cheers

    Is the whole kit there and can it be checked to be working? How much are you looking for it?

    I'll try and find it. I took it apart to embed in a guitar, but in the end I swapped to piezo saddles.

    The GK-2A is apparently available separately. I don't know how much, I don't think they've actually priced it yet - drop them an email at info@strungoutguitars.com

    I would buy one in pieces. I could use it to repair another one.
