Cutting-edge modeling guitar powered by COSM
The GP-10 provides a wide range of modeling guitars powered by COSM technology, including Stratocaster, Telecaster, Les Paul, Jazz Guitar, Acoustic Guitar, and Sitar. In
addition, it can also create new dimensions of sound that are unavailable from conventional electric guitars, such as a Wide Range model that gives you a fat sound while
preserving the wide range of a single-coil pickup, and a Bright Humbucker model that keeps the rich mid- and low-range of a humbucker while oering a crisp high end.
A variety of alternate tunings
You can choose from alternate tunings such as Drop-D, Open-G, and D-MODAL. Without swapping guitars or changing the string tension, you can instantly switch between
a wide variety of alternate tunings. There’s also a 12-string guitar mode. You can even use “USER” to specify your own tuning.
Powerful eects and amp modeling
High quality eects and amp modeling are built in. There is also a dedicated “Poly FX” specically for the GK pickup, which allows you to extract an independent string
signal for each string. This lets you experience completely new sounds that were impossible for a guitar of the past, equipped with a conventional pickup.
