    Simplicity - Quickness - Effectiveness

    Korg G3Published on 01/13/13 at 14:18
    There's not much to add to what's been said already.
    It's rustic and retro...

    USE

    The main strength of this unit: Simplicity - Quickness - Effectiveness
    It's made for people who want to play and not spend hours fiddling with controls. It takes only 5 minutes to understand it and start playing.

    SOUND QUALITY

    The quality is very good, at least with a good guitar and a tube amp. It has never altered sound, regardless of the tube amp I use, which is very important, in my opinion.
    A bit of reverb, a bit of crunch ... and it rocks.
    A trick that makes all the difference is to plug a TS or T0800 to it so you don't need to lug around tons of gear. Its perfect for blues …

    Although I don't know how it performs with a solid-state amp.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I've had mine for a couple of years and I bought it because a guitarist friend of mine, with whom I regularly play, has used one for many years (despite the huge arsenal of pedals he has).
    Not only would I buy it again, but as time goes by I often ask myself whether I should buy one or two more...for the future.

    SUPER HAPPY

    CLEAN / CRUNCH / LEAD
    Analog gear is cool. I've had really complex pedalboards and even some that change your sound as soon as you plug in your guitar. In this case, the sound of your guitar and amp are preserved, as if you had connected a simple pedal.

    USE

    It's really very easy to use, no need for a manual.

    SOUND QUALITY

    The clean sound is nice, the crunch isn't bad and the lead, to me, is the best. I've tested all sorts of multi-effects and pedals and I must admit that this one really kicks ass. It all depends on what you're looking for, I wanted an urban dance squad sound, big rock 'n' roll but not metal. It sounds fat, with a lot of bass and a formidable susta…

    OVERALL OPINION

    I've had it for a couple of days and I'm thrilled with it, even though I used to be allergic to multi-effects. Some time ago I bought a brand-new korg tone work and I could never find the sound of my guitars with it. What I like best is that it's analog, like the good old Japanese pedals. What I like least is the lack of controls for the delay and reverb, but you can still have a lot of fun with it. I bought it for 20 euros, so, to me, its value for money is pretty good.

    - 6 cumulative effects (compressor, OD / Overdrive, EQ, Flanger / Chorus / Rotary Speaker, Delay / Reverb, Noise Reduction)
    - Technology: oh here ... is the digital
    - 3x3 banks to save the sounds, they are subject to change at will
    - The connection? : DC9V outlet for the adapter, a jack 6.35 per volume pedal, a headphone jack (3.5), two jack outputs 6.35 per output audio in stereo with 2 amplifiers, one input jack 6 35 per instrument and an output jack 6.35 per tuner (in this case on bank support for by-pass the sound)
    - It comes in the form of a pedal

    At first, we must read the manual to know how to save and also to reset the G3. Except here, you plug it turns the knobs and you scratch.

    SOUND QUALITY

    Overall I found the sound very pleasant, even distos Heavies are enough if we know the best from his equipment (G3 and amp).
    But I always had a regret about the delay, which, even at the longest, is just 200 ms. If I had 800 ms I probably would never buy BOSS DD3.

    8 / 10 because of the delay.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I have since 1995 and has always made me happy.
    That material is to play right away and not spend his time programming.
    It is solid, because I have not always been kind to him, ignorant and stubborn that sometimes I was, I brutalized, but it still works fine. BRAVO KORG for this nice little multi-purpose.

    Today, now that I have a little more money, should not delude ourselves, surely I would buy a more hefty with integrated expression pedal, but at the time I had trouble falling asleep as he was not up to my guitar. A REAL LIGHTNING!
