- Tascam Guitar Players CD Player
Product Description
If you can operate a CD player, you can use the CD-GT1mkII. Take any standard compact disc by your favorite band and put it in the CD mechanism. Then plug your guitar directly into the CD-GT1mkII's 1/4" input. Put on some headphones, set the volume, and start rocking! If you're a vocalist, you can do the same, substituting your microphone for the guitar. The wildly popular CD-GT1 started a whole new product category with something that no guitar player should be without. Now Tascam added more new features than you can shake a guitar pick at including more variable speeds, a Guitar Canceller that removes center-panned guitar from most CDs so you can play along, split monitoring, a built-in metronome and fifteen more guitar effects. Now you can simultaneously change a song's speed and the key at the same time. Effect Yourself The CD-GT1mkII has 57 great-sounding built-in customizable modeling effects...you don't need to turn to external boxes for overdrive, distortion, delay, chorus and more. Plus, there's a nice selection of vocal reverbs and processed sounds so you can sing along with rockers, hip-hoppers, divas and everything in between! Performance Tools You can set seamless in-out loop points with the CD-GT1mkII...it will play the same section of music over and over again so you can focus on your playing. Use the footswitch input to start and stop the CD, or to scroll through effects. The CD-GT1mkII even provides a chromatic tuner so you always sound great ...

clap
By maywefishnow
Tascam has built in this everything needed for guitar enthusiasts who want to break down note by note to aquire otherwise hard to find notes as well as finger picking style.Now with this device one can quickly advance to playing such classic rock stars like steve howe from the group yes. I am not a sheet music reader but have a very good ear and yet could not keep up with such accomplished masterpieces such as the "clap" until now.Try finding any tabs online to play the "clap"! NONE nodda! and now with this instrument, i can slow down and not only find the right notes but feel his finger style as well.This will make it easier for you to figure out tough songs period. Make sure you opt for a 9 volt adapter as this eats up regular batteries, rechargables batteries recommended. I highly recommend this for advanced musician

Useful
By C. K. Whitsett
This is a useful tool. I haven't explored too many of its features, but the ability to easily isolate a section of music and play it over and over at reduced speed (without changing the pitch, although you can do that too) is great for helping learn parts. It does a good clean guitar amplification as well; I haven't fiddled with the effects much.My only complaint is that the manufacturing quality could be a bit higher. I'm not convinced it's made to last. Also, I've had some problem with cds skipping or repeating (when I haven't set it to do that). Just re-inserting the cd fixes that, but it shouldn't happen in the first place.

By Stevebo
I bought the Tascam CD-Gt1mkII portable cd guitar trainer for my son (age is 17). I've found that he loves the trainer and uses it over and over to learn the lead guitar parts of favorite guitarists such as Carlos Santana, Gary Moore, and even Joe Satriani. The slower-downer feature allows him to hear the parts of interest with minimal distortion. I would suggest getting the battery eliminator since you will find someone using up all the batteries in the house as they use this device for hours on end. Highly recommended.
