The GR-33 has stereo output (I run it through my 600 watt home stereo, sounds superb) and a separate feed for the guitar if you want to run that to a guitar amp (I do). The switches on the guitar enable scrolling through the banks & voices - I've bought some programmable foot switches to duplicate this (so I can use my feet for scrolling instead) the Boss FS-6 is perfect for this. The GR-33 footpedal mostly works as a volume pedal, on the organs though it controls the 'leslie' rotation speed. The footswitches are handy, T-wah Glide (octaver) Hold and Control (adds the Arpeggiator or Harmonicizer depending on the voice). There are plenty of 'sounds' included and lots of room for adding your own. Learned to play the theme from Pink Panther right away - using "Breathy Sax" voice on the GR-33 - with your eyes closed you'd swear I was playing a sax. Really suits my straight-ahead playing style. Wow! What a combination.even though I have the older Roland pup in my axe (GK-2) it tracks beautifully (some newer GR-33's have the GK-3 addon pup). The guitar arrived about a week later.and after rewiring (someone was a dolt!):

So while I waited for the R/R Strat to arrive, I also bought a GR-33 for $400 plus shipping (in hindsight I would buy the GR-55 now that I know how gr eat this system is). The detuning I suppose (can't be duplicated by the GR-33, at least not easily). But I came across a "project" guitar: MIM body (black with white P/G) and MIA maple neck with jumbos - perfect ($799 plus shipping)! The drawback of the VG system is: there's no 13 pin output! Stupid, seems like such a simple option.whatever, the VG is very limited IMHO. Originally I wanted to buy a VG strat (better guitar, MIA - maple neck) - the MIM Roland Ready strats have Rosewood F/B's. Revitalized my 60-year-old playing! I love it!! The short story 10 out of 10 - I'm having a lot of fun, makes me smile often. But if you need to MIDI your 13 pin guitar and have some synth sounds, they are about the only game in town, other than the Axon guitar synth, which I haven't tried. In summary, don't expect to just plug in and start playing great sounds and have immediate access to everything from the foot controller.
On a positive note, the guitar tracks well right out of the box, no adjustments at the synth necessary.

Luckily I have the manual so I'll be able to figure it out. As for the foot controller, the patch layout is bizarre to say the least and the foot controller does not simply advance from one patch to another as you'd expect. I think the basic synth engine is good but, as other buyers have suggested, you'll have to tweak the sounds a lot to get anything usable and, like many presets included with synthesizer, some are just silly and useless un less you're playing in the Star Trek band. However I thought I might as well pay more and get the synthesizer since it promised to deliver quality sounds and foot controlled functions. Roland made a box which does just that - converts the signal from the 13 pin output to MIDI and nothing else. I have a Godin electric with a 13 pin connector and I wanted to be able to connect to MIDI synthesizers. I'm frankly not impressed with the Roland GR-33 guitar synthesizer I recently bought on Ebay.

take the time to download and read the manual. they work well, track well, look cool, the exp pedal is a really useful feature and they are a lot of fun, once you get used to them. they're like apples and orangutans in that respect.īut anyways, for the price you can get these at on ebay these days, its a no-brainer. If you're just starting out with these mongrels, i'd probably go gr20, but this is. I haven't tri ed this with midi yet, so can't comment on that, but i did use my gk4p splitter to run it wired up with a few others (gr09/gr20) and it performed great.
honestly, for all it can do, this is pretty similar tonally to a gr55 imho, minus the effect processing power. Its not the deepest interface i've seen, but you can get some serviceable and useful tones for live use.
but once dialed in, it tracks nice and fast, with a hint of noticeable latency on your lowest notes. that said, i found some patches needed quite a bit of tweaking to really get tracking to work well. The tracking is pretty good, standard guitar synthesis caveats apply. while its NOT my favorite of the "modern" rolands (i have gr300,700,1,09,20,30,33 and 55 synths) it IS probably one of the easier ones. I got addicted to roland guitar synths years ago, and had an opportunity to pick up a roland gr33. Cool guitar synthesizer with some decent features
