GIZMOTRON 2.0 Review - The Gear Gods Review - Gear Gods

geargods.net

The Gizmotron 2.0 is a fascinating revival of a 1970s concept that offers guitarists a unique way to create lush, infinite sustain. The device is a joy to play and transforms the guitar's tonal qualities, making it a worthy investment for those willing to invest time in setup. However, installation is complex and requires patience, with some users experiencing minor issues like bent springs and uneven string volume. Despite these challenges, the Gizmotron 2.0 is highly recommended for those eager to explore its sonic possibilities.

Gizmotron 2.0

soundonsound.com

Gizmotron 2.0 revives the concept of a polyphonic guitar sustainer with unique, organic bowed sounds that surpass guitar synths. Although its installation is cumbersome and requires a learning curve for its performance keys, the payoff is an authentic bowed tone, especially with effects like reverb and chorus. It's not for everyone, demanding patience to adapt and adjust. While it struggles with interference on some guitars and limits fast playing, it shines in studio settings, offering creative potential. Best suited for a dedicated guitar, it's a niche tool for those ready to embrace its quirks.
