Guitar Synthesis Made Simple! Roland has made guitar synthesis easier than ever with the new GR-20 Guitar Synthesizer and GK-3 Divided Pickup. The GR-20 makes playing high-quality synthesizer sounds from any steel-stringed electric guitar (including Les Paul-type instruments) simple! Just attach the included GK-3 Divided Pickup, choose a sound and go. An all-new interface makes playing sounds easy using the Bank knob for sound categories and Value dial for variations, while new digital pitch detection provides superior tracking. With the GR-20, guitarists can explore a universe of new sounds. Compact, Easy Patch Selection and Lightning-Fast Tracking The GR-20's new interface makes it operate more like a compact pedal. Sounds can be selected using the Bank knob to choose a category (like Strings/Orchestral, Brass, Bass/Guitar, Organ/Keyboard, Synth/Lead or even new Rhythm and Percussion loops). Individual sounds can be selected using the Value dial. And with 48-note polyphony and Roland's latest synth engine, the sounds are nothing short of the best - all playable with lightning-fast tracking via Roland's new digital pitch detection technology. A New Pickup for Easy Installation The front end of the GR-20 is the new GK-3 Divided Pickup, which is not only easy and safe to install, but also comes with a 1/4-inch jack for normal guitar input. The pickup's adjustable curve design can be adapted to fit a variety of guitars - keeping an even distance between the strings for better response. Adjusting the pickup cable length is a snap by coiling the pickup cable inside the controller unit. The GK-3 also includes a special attachment plate for use with Les Paul-type guitars. Your Guitar and Roland's Synthesizer - A Perfect Match! Once installed, guitarists can create entirely new sounds by blending their normal guitar tone with the GR-20's synthesizer sounds via a large GK knob right on the pickup. And thanks to Roland's innovative Patch Link function, the GR-20 can be easily paired up with a MIDI-capable multi-effects processor like the BOSS GT-6. Once connected, this allows you to easily assign GR-20 Patches to match effect Patches in MIDI-capable processors. Now more than ever, the GR-20 is making guitar synthesis a simple and powerful way to expand a guitarist's sonic arsenal. Roland GR-20/GK-3 Features: Affordable guitar synthesizer with new sounds, easy interface and GK-3 pickup Easy to use: select a sound category (Strings, Organ, Synth, etc.) and play! Quick editing via Attack, Release, Chorus, and Delay/Reverb knobs Digital pitch detection for lightning-fast tracking Includes Roland's latest sounds like sax, strings, flute, brass, bass and percussion loops GK-3 mounts easily on any steel-stringed electric without damage to guitar GK-3 features an adjustable curve design and pickup cable length, plus an attachment plate for Les Paul-type guitars Patch Link enables easy connection with MIDI-capable multi-effects like GT-6 All trademarks are property of their respective owners. Customer Reviews  Guitar synth is in!   by Adhab Al-Farhan , October 30, 2006 Music Background:  Recording engineer, producer, pro musician, hobbyist “Ever since hearing metal and rock bands blend guitar synths in their music, I always wanted to get one for myself. The GR-20 has the best sound engine so far. For its price, it certainly is worth getting considering that older versions of guitar synth pedals does not compare to the GR-20. There aren't all that many guitar synth pedals out there other than this one, so basically there's not much...” Read More • Click Here to Read More Customer Reviews • Write Your Own Review More Synth Guitars from Roland: · Roland GK-3 · Roland VG-99 / GK-3 · Roland VG-99 · Roland GR-20S · Roland GI-20 · Roland GK-3B · Roland GK-Kit-GT3 · Roland GKkitBG View All Products from Roland  Tell a Friend About the GR-20/GK-3!  Print This Page See Also:  MIDI Guitar Pickups
