Is the CHD SGUS-3 multiple (three input) 13 pin connector still available from CHD? As per this thread:

I have emailed them but no answer. The distributors in the UK haven't any it seems.

To answer my own post it seems (email received) that the SGUS-3 is no longer available. What a terrible pity? Why is midi guitar such a poor man's relation in the world of music? The more I think about this the more weird it seems (to me) to be.

Elantric:
Actually its a supply, demand issue  - one must remember only a very small number of guitarists are actually interested in Guitar to MIDI and, and an even smaller number uses Roland 13 pin gear.

Nobody other than Roland is getting rich making Roland 13 pin compatible switching / routing accessories.

I understand its been several years since RMC has had any RMC  Fan Out box's for sale too.

Most manufacturers must wait until significant orders arrive, then they will have a contract assembly house build up an inventory of product to sell.

Companies will go broke if they only build one at a time.

Re S-GUS 3, I doubt CHD has ever made more than quantity 100 of those over the past 14 years.

Once they sold out, they probably are gone. 

Best to locate a Roland US-20 instead.

Ah Elantric! You are right of course to remind me of our rather miniscule status amongst the big bad world of guitar. I let my enthusiasm run away with me at times! And yet I can't help feeling sad about it for all the enforced reality of the world of the market.
