This is my patch for Honeymoon Suite's New Girl Now.

I like to use my amp's distortion for the main texture of the rhythm guitar, but it is easy enough to dial it in for yourself if you would rather use the GR-55 for everything.

I have the song's synth split to just the higher (e, A, & D) strings, so that the main rhythm parts can be played on the lower strings, and the synth comes in as accents during the bridges and chorus. I find that up-strokes without the pick gives it a nice feel.

For the break leading into the solo, toggle on the expression peddle to activate the flanger.
For the solo, step on the control pedal.

This should work for some other 80's rock songs with synth too.


This isn't my first patch, but the first I've shared, so please feel free to offer suggestions for improvements.
