I bought this online for 80 bucks. I used the Musician's Friend site. The service from them was absolutely awesome.

I think its stupid to buy an amp just because of the effects that it has. Amps should sound good with the signal you normally run. Also, you can get amps much cheaper (and in my mind, much better) by purchasing models that just have a few channels and some whopping volume. This pedal is the perfect addition to one of those amps. It's got lots of modeling for solos, cool riffs, or any style you want to play.

The one thing that makes stomp boxes better than this is the fact that you can turn them on and off and your signal stays playing out the amp. Unfortunately, if you want to play a song using 2 or more presets, there is a slight delay between the shift. It doesn't work well for that. But it is excellent for shifting styles between songs.

It's not a solid as my other Digitech stompbox. It's made of thin, lightweight metal and has plastic pedals to shift presets. I would rather have it sturdier, but it hasn't taken any damage as of yet. If you got the deal from Digitech that offered a GIG pak, you would receive a bag to keep it in while traveling. That might be a good idea.

This product is awesome. It provides unlimited styles. It can produce a Mesa Boogie rectifier, a Marshall Stack, and lots of other amp models from Fender, Vox, and many more. Then, you can top it off with 12 different kinds of effects, a few variations of delay, and a cluster of reverbs. This is a fun product to fool around with.
