Well due to my douche bag behavior on friday I got banned (which I wont get into) for the weekend. This left me with time on my hands to get to the local GC. I went in there and spent about 2 hrs trying out the pod 2.0, digitech gnx3000 and the pox xt.
In the end the pod xt won. However I have a few questions.
1) Is it me or do all the stock patches sound like shite? I mean it sounds through headphones like someone is playing the patch next doors and its incredibly muffled and low volumed.
2) I downloaded some patches off the custom tone website and wow - some just rock - gotta reverse engineer these to figure out the stock patches.
3) I have PAF7s on my K7 atm - if I got an evolution and blaze neck set would things get tighter? Could the paf7s be the cause of me thinking the patches sounding weak?
4) I have found that setting the output to amp and playing the pod through my amp - its sounds horrible too... off course all this is without the tweaking and tweaking that Im sure all of you will tell me to do.
5) Is the many hours of tweaking really needed to get your patch? How crucial is the metal pack?
Also Im still trying this out (gotta love the 30 day trial) but if anyone is selling their pod xt with the various packs please let me know.
Thanks
