Main Features
Dedicated effects unit for the V-Guitar/GK pickup
The GR-D is an effects unit specifically designed for the GK pickup, which individually extracts the signal of each string.
Since each string's signal is processed individually, you'll be able to experience completely new sounds that could not
be produced by guitars with conventional pickups of the past.
Richly expressive sounds
The GR-D processes the signal from each string individually, generating rich and unprecedentedly expressive
distortion sounds.
In addition to distortion that does not get muddy when you play a chord, you also get analog-synth-type lead sounds
that go well beyond the boundaries of conventional effects units. All the distinctive features of a guitar performance
will be fully expressed, without any sense of latency (the timing discrepancy between your playing and the sound).
Simple operation
Operation is effortless. Just twist the knobs and press the pedals to obtain cutting-edge V-Guitar sounds.
Memory function
Four effects settings can be stored (in memory) in the unit. You can switch memory slots using the [S1] [S2] buttons of
the GK pickup for instant sound selection during your live performances.
Check the following points before using the GR-D
You'll need a GK-compatible guitar
In order to use the GR-D, you'll need a guitar equipped with a GK pickup or a GK-compatible guitar such as the
GC-1 V-Guitar. (Hereafter, we'll refer to such a guitar as a "GK-compatible guitar.")
* The GR-D does not support basses (GK-3B).
You must set the GK pickup select switch to the "MIX" position!
If the switch is set to any position other than MIX, the unit won't operate correctly (there will be no sound).
