It used to be that guitar synths were considered kind of expensive and kind of one dimensional only providing synth sounds under your regular guitar sound. Cool but a bit limited for the price. Well, world renowned guitar synth maker Roland has changed that paradigm. With the arrival of the new GR 55 comes the era of ultra flexible and usable guitar synths at a super affordable price. At well under $900 the GR 55 including the synth pick up lets guitarist mix 2 independent synth sounds with a COSM guitar model and their own guitar sound complete with Roland's famous guitar amp modelling and fx processing. Add in a USB audio player and you've got a whole lot of capability complete with a ton of fun. This unit is as suited for a performing professional as it is for a recreational player/home recording artists. Drop in to check it out connected to our new state of the art recording set up. You'll be blown away.
