"Not really sexy, but really efficient"

Feature:
Well ... Basically, it's just a piece of (heavy) metal. Not so ugly (Newbies and dumbasses saying "it's ugly" should rather look better at them and their guitars, IMHO), but, for sure, it's not a sexy thing ;) It's also a decorative accessory. It also has some "latex" parts to prevents scratches when you put this thing on your axe. Kinda well thought !

Quality:
It's metal => solid and resistant thing. No flaws (would be hard to have flaws on it).

Value:
AFAIK, it's the only product of this type. Nothing special to say.

Desirability:
Hmmmm ... It's not a "super sexy" item, I admit. Its design could be better, but it could have been also far worse ! Therefore, seeing it live on a guitar (like on Satriani's), it's not really ugly : it's juste a little strange, it's like another part of your instrument. If Satriani use it, it' should necessarily be useful and efficient. And it is.

Sound:
Not the sound by itself, but rather the effect it has on the guitar's sound : richer, far longer sustain (really !), and somewhat warmer.

Ease of Use:
Just plug it, and let's go ! Simpler is impossible.

Support:
Never dealt with GrooveTubes.

Overall:
I'm curious by nature, and wanted to give this item a try. At this time, I'm entirely satisfied The result is amazing ! (but I do have really good guitars, so it helps !) But time will tell me if I'm wrong or not. I would have liek this item to be somewhat more sexy, though.

increases the sustain (and uglyness of guitar)

not too comon and easy to find

fairly novel but unecesary really. you were probably boared when you brought it and thought it was cool.
