This a very nice VG88 version 2 Roland guitar modeler.
comes with a GK-3 pickup, 13-pin cable and a softcase.
the cable is a little scratchy when wiggled. It may just need to be cleaned. It was never really an issue for me, since I play sitting down.
The VG-88 uses advanced COSM technology to "model" the most popular guitars and amplifiers in history, as well as produce some very unique "guitar-meets-synth" sounds of its own.
