BOSS - GS-1-CTMBK

Description

Crafted in Japan with professional-grade details and components, the EURUS GS-1 delivers smooth playability and high-quality sound for all guitar styles. With the touch of a button, guitarists can activate a BOSS polyphonic synthesizer to access a stunning range of analog-accented sounds and take their music to a new dimension.

The EURUS GS-1's synthesis engine delivers exceptional sound quality and natural touch response, the result of over 40 years of BOSS guitar synthesizer development. Six onboard memories are packed with ready-to-play sounds, and a synthesizer control knob allows for precise dynamic expression. Each synthesizer sound responds perfectly to classic guitar techniques, with no latency or trigger issues to disrupt the musical flow.

With the free GS-1 Editor app for iOS and Android mobile devices, musicians can fully customize synth sounds via Bluetooth. Numerous synth types and variations are available for creating sounds, along with tone, resonance, and other parameters. Additionally, various target parameters can be assigned to the guitar's synth control knob, and your favorite sound combinations can be saved for quick loading before gigs.

The EURUS GS-1 features a stylish offset body and a slim 24-fret neck with a compound-radius fingerboard for optimal playing comfort. High-performance Gotoh hardware provides smooth tremolo and excellent tuning stability thanks to a two-point bridge and offset-height locking tuners. Designed specifically for the EURUS GS-1, the dual humbucking pickups offer a wide tonal range and a two-position split sound with the five-way selector switch.
