The G5n comes equipped with freshly-developed takes on not only the most-essential guitar sounds like overdrive, distortion, compression, EQ, delay, reverb, flanging, phasing, vibrato, and chorusing, but also unique multi-effects such as Seq Filter, Gold Drive, Reverse Delay, HD Hall, and OSC Echo.

You can connect the G5n directly to a PA system or audio interface, using the 10 brand new onboard amp and cabinet emulators. Choose from 5 classic amp models like the Marshall JCM800, Fender Twin Reverb, MESA Boogie Mk3, Bogner Ecstasy Blue Channel and British 30W Class A Combo, newly and faithfully created to be adjusted exactly as you would with the knobs and switches of the real thing.

Pair your amp with one of the 5 newly-created cabinet emulators to complete the sound, choosing from Marshall 1960 A-type cabinet (4×12” Celestion speakers), Fender ’65 Twin Reverb (2×12” Jensen speakers), the UK2x12 that recreates the sound of early British combo amps (2×12” Celestion speakers), Mesa Boogie Mark III cab (1×12” Celestion Black Shadow speaker), or Bogner Ecstasy cabinet (4×12” Celestion speakers).

Stand out with “Lead BGN,” a modern lead sound folded into a modulated delay, or “Phazed,” an intense tube amp sound through a phaser. The “UFO” patch harnesses parametric EQ in the style of the lead guitarist of the band of the same name, and then there’s “DreamLand,” an overdriven crunch enhanced with tape echo and hall reverb.
