So I picked up one of these amp modelers recently on ebay. It does exactly what I expected it to do (I bought it to practice in my apartment and also to be able to record stuff straight to my computer so that I could write parts easier), however after fixing my combo amp I really dont need this anymore plus I am going to buy a slightly more expensive digital recorder with XLR mic inputs )and could use this cash towards that)

This unit is very similar to the Line 6 Pod setups but is a better price and I personally enjoy it a lot more than the lower end line 6s that would be closest in price (but still a lot more expensive)

Features:
-24 choices of amp models, bass amp models, and acoustic guitar models. 30 user presets or create 30 of your very own
-18 different speaker cabinet models to mix and match with the amp models
-built in noise supressor and built in compressor
-a slew of completely editable effects (with tap tempo where applicable)
-S/PDIF digital output make it ready to record in the digital domain.
-headphone jack
-standard instrument cable inputs and outputs
-can be used purely as an amp modeler and run into an amp/speakers or used connect directly to a computer for recording purposes.
-built in tuner
-several tone and pre and post volume/gain knobs
-MIDI in/out

Power Supply and Original manual included. The ONLY flaw my unit has is that the top of the preset knob arrived broken from the original ebay shipment, however, this has not effected my use of that knob. (It still turns and changes the preset).

Average selling price Ive seen on EBAY including shipping is $85-100 with one getting snagged for $67 (without a power supply though I think) and some going for as much as $125. I live in greenville, sc but I am up in Raleigh frequently so we could meet up there.

Picture of the same model (not of my unit specifically though)

sorry man, unfortunately Im not looking for another modeler. Trying to get some cash to put towards a small mixing board for writing 2nd and 3rd guitar tracks. I picked up the J station for the computer interfacing but my sound card is so poor im better off buying something that can mix on its own board and actually lets me mic my real stack setup as well.

also if you've heard blotted science from ron jarzombek the entire thing was recorded using only this pedal. (except a few time shifting riffs were just wav file processing.)

I'm walls1441 and i approved this message.

^^ reasonable. Def lower than id like to sell it, but if I dont get a higher offer from any other avenues ill let you know in the near future (Ill be back up in raleigh next 2 of the next 3 weekends I think)

^and yea it really is nice. im just looking for a couple other things it doesnt offer me (especially since I have a very crappy sound card, so mixing on my machine like I have to do with something like a pod or j station isnt exactly up to my liking) and I also want to be able to mic a cabinet or mic us in practice etc. But the J station certainly is solid, I just decided my needs changed from the time I got this.
