(see rating details)
I am a gear freak so I am always trying new stuff, but this will be at the top of my favorites list for a very long time.
Sound
This has a 12AX7 built in and it really makes the difference. The modeling is also spot on. This thing rocks.
Ease of Use
The software creates a virtual studio with a menu of amps and mic'ing options and a cool selection of effects. Everything you need to record the best guitar tracks. It does everything but play your guitar for you.
Quality
It's a well made solid piece of gear.
Value
Yes indeed. I mean once you hear your tracks back you will swear you had a room full of the best tube amps all mic'd up in a room with great acoustics.
Manufacturer Support
This is my first Zoom product and I contacted their tech support once with a software install issue and they got right back to me with a solution.
The Wow Factor
It's got a 60's retro look like an older piece of gear, which I prefer.

Session guitarist, indie producer, clinician.
