I own this guitar in a 3 color sunburst like the one in the video not being played and it plays beautifully. Too bad they discontinued this guitar but that makes it worth more after 30 years or so. It was only in production starting about 2006 r 2007 and they discontinued it in may of 2009. The only way to buy one is used but there might be some new ones at some local music store but I love mine and am so proud to be an owner of one of these beauties.
this guitar is amazing due to all the tonal option. No more tuning down to drop D, and so forth. I love my Les Paul, but if i do get a new one, this would be it. The only dislike i have is that u have to use batteries.
I've got 3 electric basses from warwick. they are all active, they all use a 9volt battery to power the electronic. trust me it isn't that bad. you have to change them sometimes, but it really helps to get a good sound
when you are playing in one of the "virtual guitar modes" be it strat, tele, or acoustic, are the three, single-coil pickups being used? or just the roland one?
Depends on the mode, but yes, the single coils are being used in different configurations along with the Roland p-up, unless, of course, you're in "normal" mode.
Thank god this thing is discontinued. With that pickup its more like a synthesizer. They could have just as well let piano sounds come out of that thing -_-. I prefer the real guitar sound, coming from real pickups.
So you don't think an american strat has real guitar sounds? The roland is just extra, your not forced to use it. Take the batteries out, smash the extra pickup to bits, and you still have a great guitar.
Even without the batteries it still works an American strat. I have had them out of mine for weeks now and just enjoying my $999 american strat.. Nothing to "lolz" over here.
I can't stand how everyone rags on these guitars. its always losers who aren't very good players trying to act like "Purists", and those who try to validate how good they are by saying "A real guitarist uses pedals".
If your gonna rag on it, go back to your piece of shit Squire and keep practicing the first 20 seconds of Through the Fire and Flame... You'll never get it.
Say if you had the guitar in Drop D but your in the neutral setting and you turned the knob to Drop D would the bottom string go down or stay the same tune?
In my opinion this thing is an over priced little toy. Buy a guiatr for TONE, and learn to tune. The differenet "guitar simulations" are nominal at best.
i got a regular strat with a fender amp and it can take a lot of distortion but This is so much cooler cuz it can get all thoes tones insted of just the normal 5 way switch
yeh because it comes out of the roland pickup not the standard febder magnet pickups, as long as you replace them and not the roland pickup, i should be good. Thinking of doing to mine!
I am not really into all the new gear revolutions, so maybe my question is a bit dumb, but anyway: there are all these digital amps recreating all those different sounds, why don't those manufacturers also build guitar model sounds into it? And also, if you want to play all-out tube (for instance Fender), wouldn't a guitar like this bring you back into your so-hated digital area? Or is there no modelling or digital stuff at hand?
This is actually pretty freaking sweet. I wouldn't buy one though. I don't know about everyone else but having one guitar that can do everything kinda takes away the fun of having a wall full of guitars and the excuse that you need them all for the different sounds they produce. lol.
Well this could just add to your collection. I mean I'm sure, because there's the roland pickup in there, it wouldn't sound exactly like a tele, and honestly didn't even really sound that much like an acoustic guitar it sounded more like a a chorus effect, I know what you're saying though. But for a guitarist who plays a gig every night this could be a good tool instead of bringing an extra 100 lbs of gear. Goop point
I gotta agree ...it reminds me of the old idiot proof instrument gags one used to read in Mad magazine...Still...the technology that has gone into the creation and design is pretty amazing.
Case in point ..the twelve string feature. I can see a lot of Strat players getting one of these to preclude the necessity of lugging a dozen guitars around. Imagine what will happen to Gibson sales if they put a Gibson emulator on this thing and it actually works. Ha ha
12 hours 4 aa, I tried this guitar out, and its really awesome instrument if the price was about 8 to 9 hundred, just to have but. I would suggest to buy A nice strat and stomp boxes if you want to change the sound. who knows how long the built in components will last.
for some players it makes sense, for example when i play gigs i only have like 5-10 minutes to set everything up. and with the setup i have i dont have enough time to through out enough stomp boxes for all the effects this guitar comes with. Also, the tuning is a great idea if you have only 45 minutes of showtime. the only thing i would have changed would have been the addiction of a half step tuning.
all that "it sounds like 30 different guitars" technology, its all complete crap if you want a really decent sound, which you would if you were buying an american strat. like on a 12 string theres loads of overtones and to play one feels completely different from a electric guitar. its these things that affect the tone so that it cannot be recreated by Mr roland. does look fun to play around with though =)
If this had a floyd and 24 frets it would be perfect for me... But i know its a fender and not an ibanez or something. Still a very versitile and unique guitar. Good job fender
I played one for quite a while. It sounds fake in the digital mode. Decent in the normal magnetic pickups only mode. Where it is basically just your standard USA Strat. And in that mode it is respectable as it should be. As far as those digital tunings, if you don't mind a fake digital amp sounding guitar its simply OK. Pick articulation and dynamics are lost. Yes it sounds exactly like this low-fi video. I'd rather have two basic non-digital guitars.
its just cool to have 5 guitars switching between songs and have to tune and changing amp settings... this is just for lazy guitarists... i am 17 years old so born in the digital world.. but a guitar has a soul and character.. this just is a robot. without character and soul.
Im 14 and just learning guitar, i feel the same way, im playing my dads old Fender Strat and i would never trade it for one of these Fender SHITocaster, robot guitars.
I have this guitar and if anyone is thinking about getting it i highly recommend it, and it pretty much sounds in person the way it sounds in this video so dont think theyre making it sound awesome just so youll buy and then get it and it suck, because it doesnt!
robot guitar and its shit all it does is tunes itself and change strings easier its not hard to learn how to do that this guitar has more tone options and changes tuning all at the turn of a knob vg strat= a helluva lot simpler
couldn't agree more, the vg beats the pants off of gibson's robot-guitar. They're not cheap, but not unreasonable either. Just bought one! Traded in my strat.
my one nitpick is that it should have a built in rechargeable battery, so you could just leave it plugged in to the amp, but then, say, plug a standard power cable into the back to recharge, instead of replacing the batteries twice a week.
the alt tunings sound good on the video...they ALWAYS sound good on the video. This is virtual, but the "robot" les paul actually tunes it. Would it sound as good as it does in the video? I started with a cheaper strat ($350) then got a standard SG (The one without finish, so $579). I'm looking at a new one, and caught in between this, the robot, and just a good old strat. Anyone who has this, please tell me if it's as good as it is in the demonstrations.
Yup, it depends on the sound you want. Gibson's are amazing for meaty sounds, Fenders are good for cleaner sounds the can distort better. I love my Les Paul and Strat equally though...
this is a seriously cool piece of work but i think they should've gone a little further on some things. They should have added CGCFAD as an optional tuning (or a step further allow you to tune individual strings but i can't think of a simple way to do that) and gave it a midi-out as well that would seriously make this an all in one
just wondering.. im not a fan of those american series pickups.. would it be possible to remove those and install a different pickup without wrecking the roland pickup?
i prefer schecter and fender i mean ur greatest guitarist use fender stevie ray ,hendrix, clapton, gibsons are good but there price is way more than what there worth
No, it doesn't. You have to tune it to standard tuning, then with the alternate tuning knob you can select the alternate tuning desired and the roland technology electronically changes the tuning with zero latency making it immediate.
bought one back in 07 had it set up and it sounds incredible

I think it depends on what sound you want to get, since you name is heavy metal I would go with a gibson.

Yup, it depends on the sound you want. Gibson's are amazing for meaty sounds, Fenders are good for cleaner sounds the can distort better. I love my Les Paul and Strat equally though...

Can you still use the guitar through an amp without having any batteries in it?
tombasri999 3 years ago
yes, and it has the good ole strat sound

this is a seriously cool piece of work but i think they should've gone a little further on some things. They should have added CGCFAD as an optional tuning (or a step further allow you to tune individual strings but i can't think of a simple way to do that) and gave it a midi-out as well that would seriously make this an all in one

So does this tune itself like that new Gibson guitar?
RamonesChronie 3 years ago
No, it doesn't. You have to tune it to standard tuning, then with the alternate tuning knob you can select the alternate tuning desired and the roland technology electronically changes the tuning with zero latency making it immediate.
