Sanbone-trio

Members in the Sanbone Trio. Their names are Pine (left), Carrot (center), and Soda (right).

The Sanbone Trio (サンボーン・トリオ), called the Sanborn Trio in the Japanese port, is a three-man enemy unit in Gitaroo-Man. When Puma is kidnapped at Planet Gitaroo, they serve as U-1's fifth opponent.

The Sanbone are a special group of warriors who use their Gitaroo as a weapon. They work together to fight their enemies. They all have the same name, but it's not known if they are family. They get along well and are sometimes called the democratic soldiers in the Gravillian Empire.

They have voice credits in the Japanese version. Pine is voiced by Daisuke Tōjō, Hirofune Tanaka voices Carrot, and Yasuhiko Tokuyama does the voice for Soda.

Battle[]

At the start of the song, U-1 dodges as he lacks weapons. After freeing Puma, he receives his Gitaroo and fights while Puma frees the imprisoned Gitarians. Miranda advises U-1 to aim for the weak spot, but forgets its location. During the finale, the Gitarians chase the trio. The stage is challenging due to U-1's health and faster beats. The rhythm is unpredictable, but practice helps. The Sanbone Trio's Gitaroo is percussion type and they fall without it when defeated.

Music[]

Born to be Bone
used in stage 7.
A Latin themed song with various types of percussion instruments (such as a wooden xylophone, metal drums, cymbals, etc.). A man's yell, an electric guitar, and a trumpet can be heard accompanying the song. It also has a quasi Old-Western feel as a horse's hooves and the sound of a whip cracking serve as musical cues before the finale. U-1's Gitaroo during the song acts as an acoustic guitar.
