*VERY RARE* Roland GR-100 vintage guitar synth complete with G-202 Guitar (collectors item) in Kirkby, Merseyside for sale

*VERY RARE* Roland GR-100 vintage guitar synth complete

This is one of the rarest and best priced of these you will find anywhere, these combined are selling on Greatbritainlisted for upwards of £700 for the pair, and over £400 just for the footswith on its own, You can have mine with offers of around £600 ono, these really are like rocking horse sh*t now. I'd be happy to trade for what you may have. The GR-100 provides: - a hexaphonic distortion circuit - a sustain overdrive mode - lush analog BBD chorus - individual -12db/oct low pass filters for each string - normal or inverted envelope follower - LFO controlling a pitch vibrato circuit (enabled using the touchpads on the guitar) The hex fuzz creates a huge spatial sound, and provides unprecedented clarity having a separate distortion circuit on each string. Unit is in perfect functional condition, and is in very good general condition, with a few age / use related marks but nothing more than superficial. Features and Specifications: Complex hexaphonic distortion circuit Additional sustain overdrive (mode 3) 6 individual -12 dB low-pass Voltage Controlled Filters, one per string Frequency peak and sensitivity controls for VCFs Built-in footswitch controls the VCF mode (on, bypass, or inverted) Low Frequency Oscillator with rate control, for vibrato effects Lush analog bucket-brigade chorus/vibrato Pedal control input for the VCF 3 outputs: guitar, mix/e.q. and chorus Synchronized, flashing LED status indicators Dimensions: 11.75" (W) 9.8" (D) 3.75" (H) Power Requirements: 9 watts Response Time: 1.00 ms The Roland GR-100 is the least known of all the vintage Roland guitar synthesizers. Not to undersell it, but the GR-100 is basically a one-trick pony, a super hex-fuzz machine. If six fuzz pedals with six -12 dB low-pass filters can make a guitar synthesizer, then this is a guitar synthesizer. But Roland wisely decided to call the GR-100 an "electronic guitar unit," whatever that means! I would have to say it is a very cool polyphonic fuzz box with a smooth low-pass -12 dB analog filter and a very nice chorus and vibrato circuit. The GR-100 has its own internal hex-fuzz circuit. The GR-300 generates its hex-fuzz component by processing the hex-fuzz signal generated by the guitar controller. For example, the G-202 has a different hex-fuzz circuit than the G-808. And the G-707 has no hex-fuzz circuit at all. But none of that matters with the GR-100, as it has a slightly more sophisticated version of the G-303/G-505/G-808 hex-fuzz design. The hex-fuzz in the GR-100 is smoother than what you hear with a GR-300, and it also has an additional sustain feature. With the mode switch in the down position (mode 1), you hear guitar only. In the middle position (mode 2) you hear the basic GR-100 hex-fuzz sound, and with the switch in the up position (mode 3) you hear the GR-100 hex-fuzz sound with an additional sustain/compression circuit Ones of the nicest features of the GR-100 is the chorus/vibrato circuit. What can I say? This is vintage Roland analog sound. The circuit is quite similar to the old Roland CE-1 chorus pedal. The chorus/vibrato are two flavors of the same circuit. When in Chorus mode, the GR-100 offers a sensitivity control, which is like the chorus intensity control on the CE-1. Like the Roland CE-1, the "vibrato" mode offers full control over rate and depth, and represents the "wet" or effect only output of the chorus/vibrato circuit. Owning a GR-100 just for the chorus and vibrato sound may be a bit extreme, but like so much of the analog world, there is nothing else quite as sweet and unique as the GR-100’s chorus and vibrato. And, in a nice touch, the Vibrato LED does not glow until the Vibrato circuit is actually engaged with the touch pads. Cool.
