Published on 03/23/06 at 15:00Started playing piano and trumpet at age 5, and still playing everything i can get my hands on!! I perform with guitar and bass for the most part these days.
Bought at Guitar Center and paid $420.00 USD
The concept intrigued me...that is where it ends
Even with their set programs this thing has fluctuations in tone and volume. I swapped cords,guitars,tried it thru my Mesa Maverick, Ampeg V-4 (yes i bought it new...i'm that old!!) and through a Marshall JCM 800...same result. Went back to Guitar center and their display does the same thing. I returned it on the spot and I will continue to use the assortment of stomp boxes and Wah pedals I own.
I didn't keep it long enough to have an opinion on that!
As far as the effects....No one company makes the best of each type of effect. Find ones that sound good with the rig you play on. As far as the amp modeling pedal.....I only play tube amps and the concept of a modeling pedal is quirky at best. If you want a certain sound save up and buy the thing!! Why did I buy it??? Too much time on my hands and too much cash in my pocket...dangerous combination. Good thing Guitar Center has an excelent return policy!!
