Dial the Roland GR-20 Guitar Synthesizer sound in on your own rig
Floor guitar synthesizer driven by a GK-3 divided pickup: 469 preset plus 99 user PCM patches spanning strings, organ, synth lead and pad, brass, bass and percussion, 48-voice polyphony, onboard multi-FX with chorus and delay/reverb, and dedicated attack/release shaping knobs. It carries no amp or guitar modelling - the dry guitar signal passes through untouched - so all amp voicing comes from whatever it feeds; the synth voices themselves are clean, full-range and keyboard-like rather than guitar-coloured.
