V-Guitar Modeling Synth
with Roland GK-3 Pickup
and Roland FC-300 MIDI Foot Controller
Used - Excellent+ Condition
In the history of guitar modeling, no manufacturer has devoted more time, resources, and passion into this market segment than Roland--from the world’s first guitar modeling processor, the legendary VG-8, to its popular V-Guitar predecessors. Roland proudly expanded upon that legacy with another milestone in guitar modeling and performance technology when they released the VG-99. With three powerful processors at its core, plus expressive performance controls such as Ribbon Controller and D-BEAM, this remarkable instrument raised the bar in guitar modeling and performance technology. And here you get the entire system to break down all barriers of your guitar playing experience. The Roland GK-3 guitar pickup offers access from your favorite axe to the VG-99. The GK-3 pickup has been completely redesigned for optimum response and is 30% thinner than its predecessor, plus now uses a standard 1/4" jack for normal guitar input. With the Roland FC-300 MIDI foot controller at your feet you have the power and flexibility to easily control the VG-99 onstage or in the studio. The FC-300 features two assignable expression pedals, two control pedals, nine footswitches and even more expandability, and can store up to 100 MIDI setups. Live performers will benefit from the unit's two Amp Control switches, which control amps and effects. A three-way power supply (AA batteries, AC adapter, or via RRC2) and rugged construction ensure roadworthy dependability from the Roland FC-300. Unhampered creativity and performance can now be yours!
