This product is amazing to use and for ANY guitar player of ANY level this is an extremely awesome tool at your disposal.With the built in tuner you can go jam with someone and never forget your tuner.With the ability to download additional guitar sounds you can sound like anything as well as make the sound or tailor it to your liking.This pedal also has a nice gate built into it to reduce hum and noise.I have even played my acoustic through it and was blown away by the way it sounds.Want some Eddie Van Halen? You dont even have to eat your shreddies for breakfast.....your already ready to go there after a small download and drag and drop you open the program after connecting the pocket POD via usb and update the presets and your ready to shred.
I love this product so much I am looking for the larger POD to buy and use as well.Line 6 is awesome.

Line 6 POD HD 400 Review

Line 6 POD HD 400

I just got this pedaleboard to replace my POD xt live. The packaging was good and got it the next day with amazon prime
So far I tried the factory presets and made a few of my own.
First of all, HD modeling is a great upgrade from previous pods, it does sound diferent, I'm not and audio tech or anything like that, it really feels very close the real thing.
With this one you get fewer amp modeling, but they are 16 greatly modeled amps, and you can tweak every aspect of it to make it sound how you want.
I like the fact that now with line 6 edit you can tweak the signal, you can use pre or post effect and the GUI from the new version is really intuitive.
The advantage of the 400 is that you have the bank selector and is to my opinion less confusing than the 500.
This is really an improvement I really like the new tone, the distrotion for metal are great, and lots of weird sound effects if you're more into experimental stuff
The only thing I would complain about is: 1. You have to download the manual from the line 6 page
2. It doesn't have an off switch (that's not a bad thing its just I don't like to be pluging every time I want to use it)
Is this better than the 300?? no, Tone is the same, just a few more effects, but I like to have the bank selector separate front the other switches.
Is this worth it or should I get the 500? A friend has the 500 and I got really confused making the tones, with so much stuff you can do, you have to be really patient and organized in order to get the tone you want, with 400 is just tweaking a few of the knobs and that's it ready to rock. If you just want play music with good tone and no spend time tweaking stuff the 400 is for you and you save yourself some money.
Ask me for a video review and I will gladly post it =)

HD amp modeling: sound and feel like never beforeHD amp models defy the accepted standard. They feel, behave, and interact with previously unachievable realism.Creating these new HD amp models was no small feat. Line 6 mixed 15 years of amp modeling experience with 3 years of new research and development to build an entirely new amp modeling technology from the ground up.During that time, they hunted down 16 incredible amplifiers andwith the help of LAs top tube amp expertsrestored each one back to peak condition. The new modeling technology uses 10-times more amplifier information than before, including single-ended class A tube stages, class AB push/pull interactions, power supply behavior, and more. The result is unprecedented, warmth, feel, sustain, and articulation for you to fall in love with.Tube amp fanatics have long enthused that their favorite stacks and combos arent merely amps, but instruments themselves, with playability equal to that of the guitar plugged into them. New HD modeling takes the POD HD experience to that same exalted level, capturing the genuine playability that great guitarists demand. Your amp collectionnow in HD!On the menu is a collection of freshly modeled amps, many of which are brand-new to POD, and all of which are essential for performing guitarists who require a wide variety of tones in one streamlined, multi-FX-sized package.

Line 6 Pocket POD Review

This thing is great for practicing with head phones. The wide variety of sounds make for a more authentic practice session (so when you're playing U2 songs, you don't sound like ACDC and vice versa) and makes practicing more fun.
The only big downside is that it sucks down power like nobody's business. I bought four high-end AAA batteries and the Pod ate them in a about a week of playing for less than 2 hours a night. Furthermore, the manual states that only non-rechargeable batteries (or the optional AC adapter) should be used. I now plan to buy the Line 6 DC1, which is line 6's 9 volt adapter, from Amazon soon.
Another, much smaller downside is that the real manual is only available in PDF format from Line 6's web site. But if you're at Amazon, you probably have an internet connection.
While getting the manual, you should probably also download Vyzex, which is Line 6's software for editing the tones from the Pocket Pod. This software isn't absolutely necessary for using the Pocket pod, but it does make editing tones somewhat easier, and it also allows the use of download tones (which work somewhat like synthesizer patches.) I also think the software could be better designed.
Still, I'm very pleased with the product. When you consider it's cost versus the cost of an amp head, plus stomp boxes, etc., the variety of amps and effects modeled, and the fact that the Pocket Pod doesn't take up much space at all, it's a great deal, especially someone like me who practices in an apartment.
