This is a great amp/cabinet emulator with a ton of available effects! Very easy to sit down and develop/tweak your own tones or share online tones. Great sounds for recording.

Pretty straight forward, plug your USB into your computer. Wish it had the ability to add a footswitch for playing live gigs.

Too easy!

The guitarport has a plastic body, but holds up well to abuse in a gig bag or guitar case. No problems after several years.

I'd give it an 11.

Downloads and software upgrades are very easy to use with the LineMonkey. Just load the software, and you can update anything you need via internet.

Only thing better may be one of the newer models, but this is the best bang for the buck. Other guitarists who have seen it want one!!

This is truly a gigging keyboard. Who wants to lug out their sequencers and bring them back in at 2am. It's light, and truly expressive. The sounds are amazing. I love this keyboard. But keep in mind its purpose, to play on stage. I do use it as my midi controller also. You'll also need your own speakers because there are no built in speakers (what makes it so light). But when your on stage you have to plug into a pa or amp anyways. I've gave away all my other keyboards after I got this one. It's all I need. And if I ever get the itch to record, I'll just plug into my 16 track or load up Reason.

I never even had to look at the manual. It is extreamly easy to just sit and play and figure out all the features as you go along.

When I got it, it was actually $1499, and i was still happy. So now that it costs even less makes it even better.

I've never had a single problem with mine. Ever. And I've had it for over a year now.
