Yep! In stock right now!
Combines Fender guitar
know-how with Roland technology for a versatile and innovative guitar.
You no longer
need to choose between a virtual guitar and a real guitar. The Fender
VG Stratocaster is both—everything you'd expect from a Fender
Strat, and a whole lot more!
Lurking beneath its classic Strat exterior are 37 sounds based on
Strat, Tele, humbucker Strat and acoustic, as well as 5 tunings, but
the aesthetic and cosmetic of the Strat remains intact. Even better,
the VG Stratocaster delivers level, balanced tone and volume across all
these remarkable functions, so that you won't need to continually
readjust amp settings with each change in guitar sound.
No unique hardware necessary to use the VG Strat guitar: no special
13-pin or USB cables, no power supply or input box. It plugs in and
plays like any electric guitar. All you'll notice visually are 2
additional knobs on the VG Strat's pickguard, plus a small LED and an
inconspicuous Roland® GK bridge pickup. The 2 additional knobs
are a Mode Control knob and a Tuning Function knob.
The Mode Control Knob between a Virtual version of the Ash bodied Strat
(for use of the tuning function), a virtual Telecaster, virtual
2-humbucker Strat, and an assortment of 5 acoustics, from Dreadnought
to Resonator. The 5-way blade switch switches you between sounds in the
modeling modes just like on a regular guitar.
Tune function rotary control lets you choose between Normal regular
tuning, Drop D, Open G, DADGAD, Baritone/Low B, and 12 string. The
tuning function does not work in Normal mode when circuit is bypassed.
Tuning function is also relative if you tune down to E flat, all of
these tunings will transpose down a half step. Since guitarists don't
have to turn a single tuning key, a major benefit of all these instant
tuning changes is that the string tension remains the same and the
guitar itself feels the same.
Fender's VG Stratocaster is the result of a 10-year research and design
partnership between Fender and music technology pioneer Roland
Corporation. The VG's development followed a commitment to "The Complex
Art of Keeping It Simple." Developers spent time and great effort
working out intricate details so that you can just plug in and play.
Their goal: a balance of usability and tech the more functionality
added to an instrument, the more complex it becomes. Fender kept it
pared down so it could really be used in a live setting. They stayed
with Fender sounds Strat®, Tele®, Humbucking pickups
and acoustics. No unique hardware is necessary to use the VG Strat
guitar: no special 13-pin or USB cables, no power supply or input box.
It plugs in and plays like any electric guitar, and no phonebook sized
manual is necessary it is built for 5 minute mastery, and is easy to
use and understand.
