Boss VG-800 V-Guitar Processor for Guitar and Bass (VG800 / VG 800)

Fueled by cutting-edge V-Guitar technology, the BOSS VG-800 V-Guitar processor comprehensively transforms your guitar or bass signal with the click of a switch. This powerhouse processor pairs with the BOSS Serial GK divided pickup system, putting ultra-realistic modeling of myriad acoustic and electric instruments at your command. From 12-string acoustic guitars to synthesizer sounds to pickup-specific emulations (humbucker, single-coil, and so on), the VG-800 unlocks a nearly limitless library of sounds to explore. Even more impressively, the VG-800’s Dual Bass/Guitar modes and comprehensive creation tools allow you to craft simultaneous instrument pairings across the strings. As if that wasn’t enough, this pedal also comes complete with a host of professional-grade amp models and effects built right in. You can even connect the VG-800 to your DAW of choice to enjoy its multichannel USB audio interface capabilities. And while the VG-800’s intuitive workflow and control layout make it a breeze to craft even the most complex sounds, the BOSS Tone Studio and Tone Exchange offer expanded editing capabilities and access to a vast library of user-generated presets.
