Line6 Pocket Pod

I was pleasantly surprised how good the amp sounds from this little unit were and how good they sounded through headphones. Sounds are clear, lively and resonant and the differences between the various amp models sounding quite audible. The reverb is pretty good too and adds to the depth and realism of the amp cab simulations which are applied to the amps. Plenty of variety and the amp controls are well modeled - one thing that Line6 do well is explaining (in the full downloadable reference manual) the various models and how the controls interact with them, something that other companies that do amp modelling should consider improving. Some controls are fidgety but to keep the unit small and simple that is a worthwhile trade off. I haven't played it through an amp, and not bothered with effects, so can't comment on those, but to play at night while the rest of the family are asleep it is well worth the money. Mini-jack input is handy for jamming to iRealB or BIAB. Recommended.
