MGR/jonesyLine 6 Pocket Pod
Published on 12/31/10 at 15:00The pocket pod includes great models of amps and cabinets. It is small, red kidney shape just like it's bigger brother, the POD 2.0. About the size of a handheld tuner, Pocket POD is the only personal amp modeling and effects processor packed with over 300 custom presets dialed in by rock stars and professional studio musicians who know great tone. With its 32 classic and modern amp models, 16 cab models, and 16 effects, Pocket POD enables you to create mind-blowing guitar tones wherever inspiration strikes.

This unit is available brand new for $129.99 at American Musical Supply. I was looking for something small and portable I could take to friends house for garage jams or recording sessions. I also wanted something that I could just use as a mini practice tool with headphones.

This pocket pod has great samples. You get the POD, batteries (4 triple AAAs), and then software. It has a CD and mp3 in, any 1/8' audio type will work. 1/4 inch out jack. About 300 preset patches. Different bands and popular songs you can play along with.
It does not come with a DC adapter. A little complicated to get working because of multiple button press configurations control various functions.
It's great. Good fit and finish, small size is not necessarily difficult to operate.
Overall, a great little gadget with some great patches and models for under $130, but would be a super deal if you found it under $100 used on eBay or Craigslist.

MGR/BillyLine 6 Pocket Pod
Published on 12/08/10 at 15:00This is the miniature version of what put Line 6 on the map: The Pod. There are two versions of the Pocket Pod. One with a screen and one without. I am reviewing the Pocket Pod with the screen. I don't see how I could use this device without the screen.
I was looking for a nice headphone amp to use when I couldn't make noise. I wanted something that did not suck. I ended up buying this off of Craigslist for $40.
I really like some of the sounds. Some are terrible, but hey, different strokes for different folks. There are some very usable, inspiring tones. I would even consider recording with this device to get some layered guitar tones or effects in a pinch.
I like that there...…

I like that there is a 1/8' input for my MP3 player. It makes learning songs really simple.
I really like the tap-tempo effects. I'm not very technical, nor did I have a manual, so being able to figure this device out on my own was a big plus. I did upgrade the firmware which was a pain, but I did not notice any changes whatsoever.
I don't like that the power jack is cheap. The device will shut down, then I need to unplug my guitar and replug it into the input jack, since the input jack powers the device
Besides the power jack this unit is built tough. I have dropped at as well have let it get rattled around in a book bag. Just the doggone power jack. That is the only thing holding me back from using this live.
A great headphone amp. Not built to handle abuse or be used live. Definitely some inspiring guitar tones that make you want to play.

HatsubaiDecent for on-the-go sounds
Published on 06/19/11 at 18:10With the hype and fame of the POD, it was only natural that there would be something smaller. The Pocket POD is Line 6's creation to help create some sort of modeler that you can take with you no matter where you go. For such a small device, there's quite a bit packed into this thing. There are tons of different amps, cabs and effects. On top of that, there are tons of different presets you can create.
UTILIZATION
POD did a great job at laying everything out in an easy to use manner. This thing is fairly tiny when compared to the original POD, so I'd say they achieved what they were set out on creating. Editing presets and setting everything up is just like any other POD. If...…

UTILIZATION
POD did a great job at laying everything out in an easy to use manner. This thing is fairly tiny when compared to the original POD, so I'd say they achieved what they were set out on creating. Editing presets and setting everything up is just like any other POD. If you've used one before, you'll know how to work this without a problem. If you haven't, there shouldn't be too much of a learning curve. I wish the effects had more versatility, but I was never a huge Line 6 effects fan to begin with. Line 6 has some good manuals, so if there's anything you don't get, just check it out. One thing I do worry about is how sturdy these are. I've had a few PODs break on me when chucking them around on tour, so keep that in mind. I'm hoping it's stronger because it's smaller.
SOUND QUALITY
If you like the Line 6 tone, you should like this. However, I was never a huge fan of the Line 6 stuff. For one, it has that standard modeler sound. What I mean is, the treble and presence has this certain frequency or something that I can't dial out. The gain is grainy, and it is the same no matter what preset you choose. The effects are weak, but that's not really a huge fault considering all the stuff that's thrown in here. The feel, however, is exactly like a modeler. If you've ever played a modeler, you know what I mean.
OVERALL OPINION
For a practice device, this works great. You can take it with you no matter where you go and start jamming with some headphones. However, it's still that standard Line 6 tone which means that it still feels sterile and sounds a bit grainy.

I won't describe the effects provided: you'll find them on the Line6 website.
In short, it's a pocket amp simulator.
Works with batteries. The battery life is not very long: with rechargeable batteries, I can play nearly three hours.
Connections: guitar input, phones out, amp out, line input to play along with a recorded song, PSU connector.
Sold with a small manual but no PSU. It's a pity!
UTILIZATION

Directly on the unit it's a bit difficult because some parameters require key combinations. Browsing within the presets is not very practical: in some cases, you'll press a key by mistake when you want to select another preset.
For PC editing you'll have to download the software. Storing presets is not very intuitive: you can lose your settings by mistake pretty easily.
I use it with headphones when I play guitar at home or when I'm on the road (I don't have to carry my guitar amp with me). It's ok for these applications.
SOUND QUALITY
Considering the price, the sound is rather good. However, I found some weak points, like noise with high-gain simulations.
Another con: the simulations don't fully reproduce the sound character of the guitar you play.
Altogether, the sound is ok for me.
OVERALL OPINION
I've been using it for three years as a practice tool. Don't expect to be able to use it as your main amp.
Once you made your settings (with the software), it's ok as an additional amp, especially considering the price.
I bought it to play/practice without making too much noise since my big amp is not ideal to play at home. I wouldn't buy it again if I had more money. I would choose a quality compact combo or a good sound card, but it would be more expensive.
