Help, I need advice and some opinions. I have a VG88 and GR33 (I own) and GT8 Pro/GI20/XV2020 (on loan for now before I buy it). I play a Godin LGXT (13pin,...
I the simple answer is no, i asked Roland UK if they could do this on one of my 505's, you may be better off taking that out and installing the internal gk2...
Ha! I thought someone would never ask! You remove the back plate and then you can detach the orginal (though not completely redundant) GK1 type pickup and ...
"I am still working on getting the 'warm, full tonality' from my amplification of the VG88. Seems like this is an issue with All DSP bases multi-effects...
I don't think it will work. Probably the best solution would be to install a piezo hex bridge to drive the gk-2. I play the gr-300, gr-100 and vg-8 and 88...

davor...and all...i have come to the same conclusion months ago.The roland preamp sims are just not that warm.I still love my vg-8ex for synthy stuff and ...
... If you can afford it, keep all your gear but add stereo TUBE full range amplification. If you have to sell some gear and play '70s stuff and jazz you can...
To me, one big attraction of the VG is that I don't have to cart around things like the GT8, and hook them up. The VG tries to be all things to all players,...
Pat- I went directly into a Stewart 1.6 amplifier using theVG88 and the GT8 PRO and it sounds much better than the PA setup, the JC-120H,and my 100W Tubeworks...
Moonie - I am finding the GT8Pro offers a unique approach to the signal chain location(s). You can setup a preamp chain and a post chain into and out of your...
Send it to Roland. It's too risky to do at home. Many users have screwed up their VG's and were forced to send them in for repairs because the upgrade didn't...
Just send the unit to ROALND USA in CALIFORNIA, and they will upgrade it for free, with free ship. They are the best of the best, we have done quite a few...
I think you have to pay shipping to get the unit to Roland -- I did. They shipped it back free. Ah, but will they do free shipping to destinations outside the...
Man, I am so peeved right now, I just gotta vent. I spent some time in the garage with my guitar toys, and my US-20 just abruptly stopped working correctly. No...
Hi guys - I hate to ask a dumb question but - I'm plugging in an outboard exp pedal to the 88 & not getting any response. I followed the manual as best I can...
I have ordered a couple of 5 meter long cables in Japan, can ship them in the first week of April. For people who order in the next 3 weeks, I offer them 12 %...
... The cable system is the worst part of the VG for sure. It is a nightmare live and is the single biggest reason I hesitate to use the VG on gigs. What is...
Hey Paresh, you´ve gotto assign a function to the external expression pedal, in every patch individually and hit the "write" button. I like to use the...
You did say 88, which is the one I have, so maybe I can help. If you want the external expression pedal to do anything for you, you've got to program a patch...
Ya, the roland cables really do suck. I have 3 of em and they're all noisy/microphonic. The main one I use is the least worst :-s Is there any feedback...
... I have two of the Roland cables and both were very noisy from the beginning. I bought a Planet Waves 30' line three months ago and have had no problems...
I have a couple of Line 6 external Volume/FX pedals. Anyone know if they'll work with the VG8 EX? (I also have a Roland GT-5 that has a pedal - which I'm sure...
Is there any easy way to convert VG-8 patches to VG-88 patches? Is there a way to look at an ascii or txt file of a VG-8 patch and use it as a recipe? grazi. ...
I suffered the misfortune of having my LGXT's 13 pin input needing replacement. The operation was a success, but it sure is a lousy system - I have taken to...
Question - I own a Godin LGXT with the LR Baggs setup ('99 I think). Could other LGXT owners share their System-->Driver setup for the guitar? Specifically,...
