This thing sounds great. Best $70.00 I've spent in a while. the twelve
string emulation is about as good as I've ever heard, short of a real 12
string. It can transform a strat into a pretty convincing Ricky.......at
least to my old ears.

I've got this thing in the insert loop of my Lexicon Signature 284 amp. It's
friggin wonderful. I'll get around to 'speramentin' some more when I get the
time. I'm going to get into the deep editing on the computer as soon as I
get myself another active USB extender. The editing functions look to be
really good and really easy.

this thang rock'eth most seriously

Hmmmm............I'll have to check. A lot of the presets are very
metal'esque, but editing is easy on this box.

Howzit hold up against, say the Gtr Port?
I hate to say POD, because I completely don't dig the ver 2.... too dark for
me from what I heard coming out of it. Ver 1x wasn't too bad, but still had
the plastic vibe to it. Somewhere in that range...better... worse?

Aaron,

As far as tone, right out of the box, I like it more than my POD XT Pro. My
guitar port is buried somewhere right now.

real SHIT !

Don't know if the question is specifically to me (because I did just infer I
haven't heard it yet). If you're asking me why I don't "just get a ToneLab
SE for 5 times the cost and know that you got the real SHIT!"... the answer
is:

Because, John, I already HAVE "the SHIT" in a shockmount case measuring
3'-2"D x 5'-8"H x 26"W filled with $7000 @ 347lbs worth of fabulous
pieces.

Moreover, any great player can get the "real SHIT" sound out of almost
anything because "SHIT" isn't born on a circuit board. I'm sure any pro
players here will know exactly what I'm talking about. I can walk into GC,
pick up a $149 Mexi-Strat, plug into a 7 watt $50 amp pull a crowd in 3
minutes.

So for me, at 80 bucks delivered, (versus the $400 ToneLab) I don't really
need to hear the sounds in the STOMP II nearly as much as needing to know
that (Deej) someone with reputable ears has played it, heard it, likes it,
makes zero complaint about noise level or fidelity and has general positives
about it.

I wish I had a ToneLab, but I just have a Line 6 Ax212. It's nice but buggy.
Big volume jumps on startup when you change presets, using unisyn editor
can make it scream into feedback if you're not careful.

Overall it has lots of really good sounds but I'm not a good enough guitar
player to make it worth going to a ToneLab. Also, the ToneLab is not stereo
and I'm guessing the next version might be. I think I have this phobia about
stompboxes cuz they seem to all get chained together and then become one
big mess of wall warts and noise. Let us know how you like the box, that
is a great price.

To me the Tonelab is great for clean, jazz tones, BUT, just average for the
crunch and burn tones. Maybe they (VOX) was not going for the Mesa Boogie
dual rectifire tones or even the super marshall hot tones.
All in all, good for some things, not good for others.

Bummer. I guess that tube sound is truly elusive in digital modeling.
