Roland rewrote guitar-tech history with the debut of COSM technology, which first appeared on the pioneering VG-8 guitar-modelling system. Today, the new G-5 infuses a coveted Fender Stratocaster with advanced features realised by Roland’s COSM technology. In addition to offering all classic Stratocaster sounds and functionality, the G-5 provides a new world of electric and acoustic guitar tones recreated by COSM — including instantly accessible alternate tunings and 12-string sounds for all COSM guitar tones! The G-5 also offers a built-in library of coveted modelled pickup tones, and, thanks to COSM technology, also enables unique “ideal-performance” pickups, such as a humbucker with ultra-wide tone and a single coil with full, bold tone. Classic Stratocaster infused with COSM technology Modelled pickups onboard, including unique pickups such as ultra-wide humbucker (“Bright Humbucker”) and full, bold single coil (“Wide Range”) Instantly accessible alternate tunings and 12-string sounds through COSM guitar tones Simple and easy operation based on the Stratocaster design concept 22-fret neck with medium jumbo frets American inline tuning keys
