Settings - Roland GR-55 Owner's Manual

Settings

This chapter explains how to make the necessary settings when using the GR-55 for the first time.
First, get your guitar/bass ready
• In order to use the GR-55, you'll need a guitar or bass equipped with a divided pickup (GK pickup), which
outputs a separate signal for each string.
You can use GK pickups such as the Roland GK-3 or GK-3B.
• For details on how to install a GK pickup, refer to the owner's manual that came with your GK pickup.
MEMO
• Be aware that string buzz due to a warped neck or worn frets, or faulty octave adjustment, can cause
problems such as wrong notes being produced.
• This unit does not support 7-string guitars/basses or other non-standard guitars/basses.
NOTE
When you remove a GK-3 (GK-3B) from a guitar (bass) that has a lacquered finish, after it has been attached there for a long time, you may find
that it has left a mark on the surface.
Check the Web for details about installing GK pickups
• On the Roland website, the "GK-3/3B Installation Tips" page provides an explanation and photos on how to
attach a GK pickup. Be sure to take a look!
