Selecting Tunings
The “Tuning” control lets you choose among several dierent tunings and
12-string sounds, all at the turn of a rotary selector control. It’s great to know
you’ll no longer be needing multiple guitars laying around in dierent tunings
at the gig or in the studio.
Tuning Explanation
Normal (N) In this mode, your guitar plays in standard tuning (E A D G B E).
Drop D (D)
In this mode, your guitar plays with the lowest string tuned to D
(D A D G B E).
Open G (G) In this mode, your guitar plays in open G tuning (D G D G B D).
D Modal (d) In this mode, your guitar plays in D modal tuning (D A D G A D).
Baritone (B) In this mode, your guitar plays as a baritone guitar (B E A D F# B).
12 String (12)
In this mode, your guitar is beautifully modeled as a 12 string, acoustic or
electric guitar.
* To achieve the alternate tunings as described on the tuning control, tune your guitar to
correct standard tuning (E A D G B E). If you tune the guitar up or down (E at, for example),
the modeled tunings will transpose relative to the actual tuning of your guitar.
