Roland GR-55 Guitar Synthesizer

The GR-55 sets a new standard in guitar synthesis, using newly developed pitch-detection technology to produce a vast array of virtual guitars, basses, amps, and synth voices through its triple-core generator — giving a unique and diverse range of tones and textures. Its extensive selection of ready-to-use sounds includes pop and rock presets and more, making it suited for both live performance and studio recording, and quick-access category buttons make it easy to find the perfect sound instantly.
