The G5n comes loaded with 100 beautifully-crafted and newly assembled DSP effects, plus 26 of the most faithful and realistic amp/cabinet emulators we've ever created.
A wide array of effects:
- 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
- Also unique multi-effects such as Seq Filter, Gold Drive, Reverse Delay, HD Hall, and OSC Echo.
Ultra-realistic amp/cabinet emulation:
- You can connect the G5n directly to a PA system or audio interface, using the 26 brand new onboard amp and cabinet emulators
- Choose from 13 classic amp models like the 59 Fender Bassman, Diezel Herbert Channel 2, Marshall JCM800, Fender Twin Reverb, and MESA Boogie Mk3
- All 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 13 newly-created cabinet emulators to complete the sound, choosingfrom cabinets like the Marshall 1960 A-type cabinet (4x12 Celestion speakers), Fender 65 Deluxe Reverb (1x12 Jensen C-12K speakers), Mesa Boogie Mark 1 (1x12 ALTEC 417-8H speaker), or Bogner Ecstasy cabinet (4x12 Celestion speakers).
To explore the wealth of possibilities that the G5n offers, we continuously collaborate with inspirational, professional guitarists known for their taste and love of great guitar sounds.
The G5n comes stocked with 124 custom-designed patches that both recreate decades of essential guitar toneslike the iconic sounds of Eddie Van Halen, Jimi Hendrix, Jimmy Page, Carlos Santana, Michael Schenker, and Brian Mayand pioneer new territory with combinations exclusively created for G5n guitarists.

The "UFO" patch harnesses parametric EQ in the style of the lead guitarist of the band of the same name, and then there's "DreamWorld," an overdriven crunch enhanced with tape echo and hall reverb.
