ROLAND VG8

Description

The Roland VG-8EX is a breakthrough guitar processor that uses advanced modeling technology to emulate the most popular guitars and amplifiers in music history.
Using Roland’s Composite Object Sound Modeling (COSM) technology, the VG-8EX combines multiple "sound objects"—like double-cutaway guitar bodies, vintage tweed amplifiers, and humbucking pickups—to create a perfect reproduction of these components that can be played from any steel-stringed guitar with a Roland GK-2A pickup.
The VG-8EX also has a built-in polyphonic pitch shifter for creating 12-string guitars and open tunings as well as a complete digital effects processor and parametric EQ.
