Members steve_man Posted October 19, 2009 Members Share Posted October 19, 2009 Okay, after trying the ST model yesterday, I was hooked. However, I wanted the LE model, as it was just bigger, and more user-friendly looking...and had a full-size pedal on it. I thought it would be a while, as they are $399 new, and I don't have that kinda scratch right now. But, I was looking online, and found a used one in good shape for an amazingly low price...so I couldn't pass it up. Gonna sell a mic, and maybe another pedal to pay for it, but I'm not using that stuff right now anyways. This is the pic of it...should be here first of next week...

Members GAS Man Posted October 19, 2009 Members Share Posted October 19, 2009 I've got the blue desk top model. Can't remember the model number right now. But they're nice and you get a lot for the money. Some of the modulation effects could be a bit better, but they are good for a all in one unit. Plus I've found with mine that with noodling around with the amp types x cabinet types x the various gains, it seems like an almost infinite permutation of tones. I was using mine mostly with a Roland JC120. I found that it didn't quite make it sound like those amps, but flavored its tone towards those amps. At one point I was convinced that it was working much better going through the effects loop, and then later I wasn't sure since I was having some issues with the gain levels on the back of both units. But anyway, try it both ways and enjoy! I think they are a nice unit. Korg IIRC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members steve_man Posted October 19, 2009 Author Members Share Posted October 19, 2009 Congrats on the new "box o' cheat" there Steve. Thanks man. Just decided it was much easier...and MUCH cheaper (like the price of a new Boss chorus) than trying to buy individual pedals and different amps to get the different tones I wanted. Also like having the ability to plug straight into a PA. This will be nice at church, where amps are often overkill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members cratz2 Posted October 20, 2009 Members Share Posted October 20, 2009 Hope you like it. I still love mine and I've had it for two years... maybe more. I mostly just play into tube amps with a single pedal, but the Tonelab/Prowler combo is still great, esp considering I have a hair under $300 in both of them. One of the neatest things about the modelers is, you can have crazy, believable high gain and volume levels so low, a kid can be sleeping in the same room while you are playing. That's not the way to have the most fun, but it's pretty cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members twisty571 Posted October 20, 2009 Members Share Posted October 20, 2009 Nice,I was actually looking at those until I found a very bad listing on eBay for a Digitech 2120 artist for $100 so I went with it. Just waiting for it to get here:thu: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members cratz2 Posted October 20, 2009 Members Share Posted October 20, 2009 $129, plus shipping/tax...was $150 shipped... SWEET! I'm perfectly happy with my desktop, but I'd consider grabbing an SE or an LE for $150 shipped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
