ISSP2 Per-String Pickup System for High-Precision Tracking
The ISSP2 (Inductor Separate System Pickup) technology isolates each string individually, ensuring balanced output, improved articulation, and highly reliable pitch-to-MIDI tracking. This design supports both clean analog amplification and stable digital performance workflows.
Dual Analog and MIDI Output Capability
The 4-string Gold model features a standard 1/4” analog output for amplifiers and effects, along with a dedicated multi-pin MIDI interface for integration with systems such as Roland GR-series processors and compatible synthesizer modules.
Italian Craftsmanship with Premium Gold Finish
Constructed with a solid maple body and ebony fittings including fingerboard and chinrest, the instrument offers durability, stability, and a refined professional feel. The gold finish delivers a striking, high-end stage aesthetic designed for visual impact.

An onboard active preamp processes each string independently, ensuring consistent output balance and precise tonal response across the instrument. This improves both analog sound clarity and MIDI accuracy during performance.
