Hi All!

I've wanted to make this patch for a while, as we just picked up this song in one of the bands I play in. It's amazing how this song goes over still!
I've always wanted to play that middle keyboard part and still play the G chord required when doing it.

The ctrl pedal controls turning it off and on. While "off" you have your guitar (Normal pickup) while "on" you have the keyboard and a modeling guitar that the Low E is turned off (to avoid bad notes) and the A string is tuned to G, so therefore while playing the chords and playing 16th notes on the open strings your playing the G chord, plus the keyboards! Works well with the full band!
If you are also doing the solo, kick on the exp pedal switch you have your lead tone.
I've included the tab for that part to show you the 3 note chords I'm playing.
Fun Stuff!!
