Product information

General

Install the Boss GK-5B Electric Bass Guitar Divided Pickup and plug it directly into a compatible synth unit via a Serial GK format TRS jack cable to completely flip and transform the sound. Besides turning your bass into a synthesizer, this setup opens up a completely new world of sound. The MIDI-pickup captures the vibration of the strings and translates it into MIDI data that, via a module like the Boss GM-800 Guitar Synthesizer pedal, can then be turned into the sound of a completely different instrument - like, any of the instruments found in the ZEN-Core Synthesis System.

The Boss GK-5B: Smaller, Easier & More Stable

This Boss-designed synthesizer pickup is compatible with four, five and six-string electric basses, and since this is the latest generation, is also a touch more durable than previous models. For a start, the redeveloped, more compact design is much easier to install, especially since the pickup comes including a neat mounting bracket and double-sided fastening tape. Meanwhile, the MIDI signal transfer is much more stable and the noise caused by interference has been pushed right down.

Bax Music Warranty This product comes with a 3-year warranty.

Boss GK-5B Electric Bass Guitar Divided Pickup bass guitar synthesiser element

Mooi element. Werkt goed met mijn Boss VG-800. De installatie was wel even een dingetje, maar met wat geduld en gezond verstand kom je er wel. Hij is te gebruiken op 4, 5 en 6 snarige bas, en doet perfect wat hij moet doen. De twijfel of hij wel goed zou werken was al snel verdwenen. Het is een topproduct. Ook te gebruiken i.c.m. de Boss GM-800.
