World-Class Sounds from a World-Class Talent

True guitar prodigies quickly emerge beyond their respective national scenes into the worldwide arena as a result of their exceptional talent and remarkable accolades. In light of his renowned abilities, Zoom has created the G1K signature effects pedal to showcase the varying tones of guitar virtuoso Kiko Loureiro.

Kiko’s Creativity at your Disposal

Emerging from Sao Paulo Brazil, Kiko Loureiro has taken the world by storm. Despite the time he has invested into over ten full-lengths and EPs with progressive metal band Angra, Kiko still manages to pursue his solo and instructional endeavors. Apart from the thick, metal rhythms and bright, ripping leads specific to Angra, Kiko’s most recent solo efforts consist of jazz-fusion work with Brazilian Samba and Cuban Latin influences.

The G1K offers the clean, jazzy bossa sound of “Bossa Nova,” the metal tapping sound from Angra’s “Nova Era,” the bluesy, ballad tone of “Crunch Delay,” along with many other sounds ranging from thick rhythms to violin emulation. The G1K features 40 patches created by Kiko and 40 patches available to be filled by the user.

When Inspiration and Expertise Come Together…

The G1K is based on Zoom’s immensely popular G1 effects pedal and features 32-bit processing and 96 kHz sampling with a built-in drum machine. Designed with sounds to inspire and plenty of room for your own creativity, this new signature pedal combines the style and feel of a rock prodigy with the effects expertise of Zoom.
