To prevent malfunction and/or damage to speakers or other
devices, always turn down the volume, and turn off the
power on all devices before making any connections.
Use only the specified expression pedal (EV-5 or BOSS FV-
300L; sold separately). By connecting any other expression
pedals, you risk causing malfunction and/or damage to the
unit.
When connecting a FS-5U, set the polarity switch as
described below.

About the GUITAR INPUT jack
When connecting a guitar to the VG-88 without C-13A/B
cable, use the GUITAR INPUT jack.
About the OUTPUT jack
When connecting a guitar amp to the OUTPUT jacks, use the
guitar amp’s MAIN IN jack or RETURN jack.
If your guitar amp does not have a MAIN IN jack or
RETURN jack, connect it to the guitar input jack (INPUT).
About the GUITAR OUT jack
As desired, connect your amp or mixer to the GUITAR OUT
jack.
* Since you can output only the original guitar sound from the
GUITAR OUT jack, use the jack when you wish to process
just the guitar sound through an external effects device.
* If you are using the normal guitar input jack of the GK-2A/
GK-3, set the GK-2A/GK-3 select switch to “MIX.” If the
select switch is set to “SYNTH (GK),” the signal from
GUITAR OUT will be muted (silenced).
* Even when headphones are connected to the PHONES jack,
sound will still be output from the OUTPUT jack and the
GUITAR OUT jack.
