Roland VG-88 V-Guitar System
In Mint Operating & Physical Condition
The Roland VG-88 V-Guitar System is a digital guitar and amp modeling system that uses COSM technology to emulate classic guitars, amps, speakers, and pickups, along with unique Harmonic Restructure Modeling (HRM) for guitar-synth sounds. It offers a comprehensive sonic toolkit for electric and acoustic sounds, polyphonic effects like pitch shifting and octave shifts, and an expression pedal for real-time parameter control, making it a versatile tool for live performance and studio work. How It Works
GK Pickup Required: To utilize its full capabilities, including the guitar and synth modeling, the VG-88 requires a Roland GK-2A or compatible divided pickup.
COSM Modeling: The device models the entire signal chain, including the guitar body, pickups, amplifier, speaker cabinet, and microphone.
HRM Technology: This technology allows for the creation of synth-like sounds, including brass, by restructuring the harmonic content of the guitar signal.
Key Features
Guitar Modeling: Access to models of popular guitars, including hollow-body and acoustic types, according to Roland.
Amp & Speaker Modeling: Emulates a range of classic tube amps and speaker cabinets.
Polyphonic Pitch Shifting: Allows for effects like creating 12-string guitars, instant open tunings, and slow gear effects, as noted by Roland.
Onboard Effects: Includes a variety of effects such as reverb, chorus, delay, flanger, and parametric EQ.
Expression Pedal: A programmable pedal for controlling parameters like volume, wah, and pitch.
Preset Memory: Offers 260 patch locations, including 160 presets and 100 user memories.
Experimental Players: Musicians looking to explore sounds beyond a traditional electric guitar setup, as described by Sound On Sound.
Studio & Live Musicians: Provides a wide range of tools for both creating unique tones for recordings and captivating live audiences.
Players Seeking Versatility: Musicians who want the flexibility to switch between different guitar tones, tunings, and sonic textures on the fly.
