With such a rich and extensive history, the VG Strat brought a challenge as to which guitars to model.
Stratocaster® 5 MODES OF THE VG STRATOCASTER® The 5-way selectable “Mode” control is what you will use to choose among the VG’s distinct modeling modes. While in each mode, simply use the blade 5-way selector switch to switch pickups as if you are playing the guitar type that you’ve selected. Here are the modes: • Normal (N): In this non-modeling mode, your guitar uses it's three standard Strat pickups only and plays like a standard Stratocaster® guitar.

Stratocaster® TUNING CONTROL The "Tuning" control lets you choose among several different tunings and 12-string sounds, all at the turn of a rotary selector control. It's great to know you'll no longer be needing multiple guitars laying around in different tunings at the gig or in the studio. This feature is also fantastic because many of the tunings would drastically alter the string tension of a guitar, with some strings slackened and some tightened.
Stratocaster® NOTE: To achieve the alternate tunings as described on the tuning control page (pg 11), tune your guitar to correct standard tuning. If you tune the guitar up or down (E flat, for example), the modeled tunings will transpose relative to the actual tuning of your guitar. TONE AND VOLUME CONTROL Volume With the volume control you are able to control the volume level of the instrument in all modes.
