Just got my GR-55, so haven't done much patch creation yet. I've been looking for a patch that I can use for playing Pride and Joy; I found a such a patch for the VG-99, but not for GR-55. Anyone has one that wouldn't mind sharing? I tried the "blues" patches that I found, but they just don't sound right.
Thank you.

Hi wiNinja,
for patch clowning from VG99 to GR55 you can get some tipps here:

Oh, so that's the approach. A good way for me to move toward creating my own patch. I have to give that a go.

Thanks for the tip papabuss.

My first attempt at sharing a patch I've written, so any feedback is welcomed. It is set to sound like "Day of the eagle" when started. The CTL inserts a sort of Hammond B3 organ and the exp pedal adjusts the organ volume when off. When exp is on it becomes a waw/waw pedal. S1 deactivates the amp (for some reason it needs to be pressed twice the first time when the patch is called up but only once thereafter). S2 turns on the reverb. If you turn the reverb on and play blues many say it sounds like SRV. Hope you enjoy the sound!
GR-55 through basic PA System. No additional devices. GK-3 installed on a 1983 Stratocaster (1961 reissue)

Hi there,

I am looking for Robin Trower- Bridges of Sigh sound-a-like patch. When testing the GR-55 at Guitarcenter in San Jose they had a patch like that on it. Unfortunatly this is now 6500 miles away, so I can't just go there and find it again.
Anyone else has such a patch or is it a default on the blue GR55? I have the black one and its not on :-(

Best Regards
