This thing does everything but play the guitar for you! Using your conventional guitar, you can choose from a dozen or more combinations of amp and speaker combinations, all played thru stereo 65 watts per channel. Works beautifully for acoustic guitars with pickups, strat, tele, les paul, whatever. Also offers plenty of on-board effects which can be combined in almost any configuration. All these models and effects can be pre-set and stored to a numbered location and recalled by control panel or footswitch. Great for cover bands who need to sound "just like the record".
Now, if you have a guitar equipped with Roland's GK pickup, or perhaps a Godin or Fender with a built-in hexaphonic pickup: It will also model various guitars and similar instruments (banjo, sitar, nylon string, steel string acoustic, etc.) These models are, for the most part, very credible (nylon string - not so much). It will also provide pitch shifting, so you can program alternate tunings or virtual capo function. It will even capo DOWN! So, play some blistering shred piece modelling a Boogie and strat, then click your footswitch and play Roger McGuinn's twelve-string Rickenbacker thru a Twin Reverb or AC30.
This thing is big, loud, and bullet-proof. Google it for more info than I can supply here.
