  • Here’s a play-through of all 8 “pedals” in the Roland GP8 as well as various combinations and a lot of train of thought Tomfoolery.

    As an amazing player and 335 lover you will love this guy Bill Nelson from a 70,s UK band Bebop Deluxe ,check out Adventures in a Yorkshire landscape on the album Live in the air age, his 335 tone and playing will blow your hair back !

    Another thing I’ll add is what this unit really shines at is rock and metal style rhythm and lead sounds that IMO are world class. There are sounds right out of the box that you can record album quality tones with that rival anything. The way they integrated the OD/Boost and DD style delay and compressor is truly fantastic in that it’s mostly analog with a lot of cool tech and chips. I am currently doing an album with a Strymon DIG and Iridium with a KOT and there are tones here that I prefer. The stereo chorus can get frigging 3D and huge as well. The wah and phaser are a little bit meh but the rest of the unit is absolutely world class. For the money they are maybe the best value out there.

      Dope comment my dude, I have four of them lol. I’ve been using a Mesa studio pre and a torpedo live for most of my guitar recording lately. I need to slap a gp8 into my bedroom studio rack!

    Wicked stuff, as always. Have you ever come across a GP-6? I think you'd dig it. Would be interested to see how it compares to the GP-8.

      That’s awesome! This is the one to have, out of the series. Just gotta think about it as a vintage Made in Japan Boss only pedalboard all shoved into a box, which is exactly what it is. If I remember correctly you can use it in 4 cable mode

      They were the perfect, streamlined accessory for a 2 channel JCM800 rig with channel switching outs, separate analog and digital outs for putting the delay and chorus in the loop and the other stuff in front. I don’t know that stuff has actuality become any more streamlined.

    Youre a really sick guitar player and any great guitar player can influence a sound out of a shoe box. The GP 8 is not a great unit but in the hands of Gilmour it would be. I had one when i had moderate skills and when i got rid of it ad got really good pedals i sounded at leasat decent. Cliffy youre a kid with obviously intelligence and probably your parent hooked you up and with you tube you learned really fast so no pffense kid but you had a head start in many ways from moola and time to learn as well as many things, You could make anything sound good because of you not the gp 8 lol Sht when i picked up a guitar i couldnt even afford tab books that were fd up and if i wanted to learn something i had to watch MTV all night or rent a vhs tape to watch where Alex Lifesons hands were and rewind the tape to the right part and wait aw hile till the section came on. That and get fd up info from the neighborhgood hack who was a little better than i was. You young punks dont know how good you have it lol just kidding fn whippersnappers. lol
