3.0 out of 5 stars All the features...except good sound, February 20, 2006

I really wanted this to be the one, but the sound and material quality is poor. I returned this and bought the Danelectro Honey Tone for about $20, it has much better sound quality. They have all the features right but the sound quality, (poor tone, and effects are noisy/buzzy) and material quality is poor. Cheap plastic case, poor battery door, poor printing on the case. Hope they improve it, it is a great product idea, and made in the USA, but where's the quality, especially for this high price? If it was $30 I wouldn't be complaining, well, OK, the Honey Tone still sounds better, so I guess I would. Just my 2-Cents worth, try it your self!

2.0 out of 5 stars Awful. Just a terrible product., July 10, 2009

I bought this after reading some good reviews here and elsewhere, and got it new for [...]. Seems like a pretty good deal? No.

The thing is cheaply made, as everyone else said, but that's just the tip of the iceberg. Most of the effects are just about unusable. The reverb has a horrible amount of noise in the background. The "clean" mode is still distorted, though some playing with your guitar volume can help change that. My 70 dollar multi-effects pedal sounds like glistening ambrosia compared to this.

I'm no guitar tone snob, but the tone of this thing was god awful. Even once I replaced their crummy headphones with my good ones. Also, the metronome is painfully loud if you use in-ear headphones, and only comes in about 7 tempos (don't remember exactly). I can't tell much difference between their two available metronome volume levels.
The tuner is not a tuner in the conventional sense, but rather a simple note player that you tune to.

The settings are all navigated with a voice that distorts a bit based on what settings you have activated.

All in all, I just wanted something decent and I was horribly disappointed. Wish I could return it. Don't buy this, or at least without trying it first.

I enjoy playing guitar but sometimes you can disturb others when you play like in hotel rooms etc. I bought this equipment on a whim... but I was supprised at the quality of this product! This thing is killer! It sounds like a marshall stack in the head phones I even plugged it through the board at my Recording Studio and it sounded great! I would recommend this product to anyone it is amazing!
