Sound: I've been using all sorts of Digitech pedals over the years. I play 4 string bass but I have had great results using guitar pedals (I never use bass pedals, they don't fit my style) This pedal, like many other Digitech brand pedals) can give you great tone & sound if you just take the time to mess with the settings...I swear by this pedal & brand & i've been playing bass for over 20 years. Check out how it sounds on my music page & judge for yourself: http://www.reverbnation.com/alexcastel Feature: No power cord but I have extra cords that work just fine with it. Ease of Use: Very easy to program tones to your liking...ie; don't like the distortion? then change it by pushing a few buttons, I did and now I have a WICKED bass-distortion tone! Quality: Plastic BUT its thick plastic, holds up well for gigs as long you dont beat on it. Bright led readout is very helpful in dark clubs. Value: 10 on value. For the money you cant go wrong, nothing better in this price range that can do this much! Manufacturer Support: Great support though I have not needed it in a couple of years. The Wow Factor: I dig this little black box...nice design and rugged for being plastic..lots of helpful lights too! Overall: Money is tight so I don't see buying another pedal any time soon. For cluba & bars, its all i need.

Sound: Price and value clearly exeeded my expectations Feature: The equipment I received did not include a power transformer or batteries. I think this is short sighted customer service. Ease of Use: The product works great and was easy to learn. I would also include a features sheet or card with the instructions on a seperate page (numbers only) Quality: The product seems durable. But, is there some sort carrying case available? Value: The price and value of this product is outstanding compared to other similar products I've seen on the market. Overall: Iam satisfied with this product and currently not interested in looking for another. I would however change my mind if the product was lost or failed to work in the future.

Overall: I had previously owned the RP50 so I looked for something similar. I found the RP55 which is basically it's brother. Smaller and sleeker than the RP50 but same great functionality. Extremely easy to program with killer amps and stellar effects. Great price. An excellent buy.

Sound: don't get it expecting a great metal distortion...thats not its strong point, but it has a bunch of great effects and good distortion for punk and classic rock Feature: lots of presets to make but the ones that come on there suck Ease of Use: kinda hard at first but you get the hang of it, its the symplest multi effects petal Quality: plastic, just dont jump on it! Value: best for the price! Overall: if it was stolen i would buy the $100 one to get the looper and expression petal

1. We offer the most flexible payment plans in the biz

zZounds offers a number of different installment payment plans that make it affordable and convenient for you to get the gear you really want today, without racking up risky credit card debt.

Other stores offer house credit cards that require you to fill out an application and pass a credit check--and, if you qualify, leave you vulnerable to exorbitant interest charges once the initial promotional period ends. zZounds payment plans are easy to get and simple to use; plus we'll never charge you interest!

2. We guarantee the lowest price

If we don't already have the lowest price, just send us a link to any legitimate competitor's offer, and we'll beat their price as long as we're not losing money on the deal.

To submit a request for a lower price, click "Seen it for less?" on any product page. We answer most lowest price requests within two hours. For extra peace of mind, you also have 30 days after your purchase to find a lower price; if you do, we'll refund the difference.

3. You'll get your gear fast

Because we have two well-situated warehouses--one on each coast--nearly three- quarters of the US population is located within our two-day shipping zones. Plus, we keep both warehouses well stocked with all the most popular products, so you'll usually get your gear fast without having to pay more for expedited shipping.

In fact, zZounds offers free two-day delivery on many of our best-selling products!

4. We make returns super easy

You have 30 days to try your gear at home, in your practice space or studio. If you're not absolutely in love with the sound you're getting, just let us know. We'll promptly arrange for an exchange or a refund without the hassles or hidden charges you face with some of our competitors. If there's something wrong with the gear you bought from us, we'll email you an electronic return label so you can return it easily and free of charge.

5. Our customer service is consistently rated the best

zZounds customer service is consistently rated at or near the top on every major comparison shopping website--probably because we only hire experienced musicians with outstanding customer service skills to work in our call center, and they don't work on commission. To us, this is our most meaningful measure of success. zZounds has served over a million customers since 1996, and they're the only critics whose reviews really matter to us.
