Customer Ratings & Reviews

I'm an old Piedmont Blues player returning to his Rockabilly roots. I've picked up a couple of electrics (guitar, bass, keyboard) in the past year and have been laying down some tracks. The only effect I was familiar with was my old Wah pedal, and need something more, but I didn't know what. This is it! I got it three days ago at a local Best Buy and haven't put it down! I was heading to the local Guitar Big Box when I thought about my BB GIft Card and thought to check online. They had one in stock at an almost local store. When I got there, the store price was $10 less, and I got another $10 off at checkout for using a gift card, AND they let me try it in the store, so before I left, I was already favorably disposed. When I got it home, it did not disappoint. I plugged in my electric and ran it through my Bass amp (Acoustic) and suddenly started wailing! I tried out every guitar I had (acoustics and bass included) and then ran it through my mini-mixer and PA. Still great. Then I ran the mixer through the Pod Express and out to the PA. That completely blew me away. The handfull of effects are perfect for me, since I don't want to mess with a bunch of settings to start working out. I've already begun to pick my favorites; I doubt I'll ever use flange, but it sounds neat; and on an acoustic guitar, Rock delivers a better blues crunch, but the Crunch setting is fine for an electric. The settings can be a little hard to dial in; it doesn't have a lot of nuance. And the delay is particularly challenging. On the other hand, it has helped me select which effects will be useful in my kind of music. Whether I play through speakers or headphones (my family's preference), the sound is clear and crisp. And if I move on to bigger effect boxes, it still makes a great pre-amp for my acoustics. Check your Best Buy store. The LIST price in my local BB beat ANY Internet price.

Bought this past Christmas and is in my gig bag since. Great for quiet rehearsal w/ a headphone while waiting for your turn to perform. Sound is B+ on my solid state and tube amp. Tuner works with my guitar but not my bass guitar. Learning curve is over in a few hours. Effects are very useful. It weighs like nothing and can be plugged directly to the main PA. Very versatile. At home, I've been using it with a floor based looper then amplified with a lightweight roland amp. Lot's of fun without the backbreaking weight. A good friend of mine gave me a gift card plus it was on sale. All I paid was 28 bucks. Alive and grateful!
