Feature:
Sure the bag is nice, but I coould have made my own. I would have rather had a looping delay to play over, or some other synth sounds to mess with on the rare occasion. Two expression pedals is handy though. Board Layout is great. Looks cool in the dark.
Quality:
I saw the pod xt falling apart in the store, which I originaly went in for, and turned around and tried this one and picked this one up instead. Sound quality is great if you play alot of singal notes that you want people to hear. Construction feels good.
Value:
Wish the unit had more features, more effeects, more, more, to go with the great tone. It is 250 over the pod (msrp) but sounds much better. Not to happy about lack of some affects, but I think this unit will help me focus more on how I play the guitar rather than what I play.
Desirability:
It depends are you a tone guy or a effects/gadjets guy. I seem to be a rare inbetween one..or I gusse i did buy the Tone Lab Not the Pod xt.
Sound:
Sounds great through my tube amp. I've never played with a proccesor that sounded like this. Even up to my old chameleon with mos valve tube amp, this thing sounds great. If your on the boarder of getting rid of all your peddals this would be something to look at first.
Ease of Use:
I plugged it in and ended up jammin strait for an hour and a half with my keyboard player. I think the learning curve is steep in the begining slows down then picks up again once you sleep with the manual.
Support:
websites okay. Haven't had to call in.
Overall:
I think I might have to buy some external peddals to go with this unit. I think If you are realy focused on your tone and don't need to much crazy stuff going on this is perfect for you. It seems that instrument producers like vox and the Line 6 would benifit from combining the strengh of thies two products.
