The ME-70 is a great value for the money because it does so many things easily. We have a review of the ME-70 in our Wiki. -------------------- "I dreamed a lot when I was younger..

I'd get a tube amp instead of a modelling/fx amp, you'll have plenty of effects on the ME-70. I'm sure it will work just fine with the VT100 anyway, just a matter of preference. -------------------- Guitars:

Your original idea was a Vox VT100. Do you need 100 watts?
It's hard to find 100 Watts tube amps for £300. You could get some decent amps for apartment use though, such as the BlackStar HT-5, Vox Ac4TV, or maybe Blackheart Little Giant or Handsome Devil. All of them have Combo and Head + Cab versions. If you need something bigger to play with a drummer/gig those above will not have enough power though. Edit: That Vox VT100 is a really good option too. No need for a tube amp to sound good, although that would be my choice, others prefer solid state/hybrid amps, and they sound great.

That Boss is good, but I think you don't need that much modeling. I advise you to consider getting MultiFX unit (with only time & modulation effects in it), a separate boost pedal, and a decent tube amp. This is far better and more practical solution.

You can switch off the amp modelling section on the ME-70, that's a feature I really appreciate, that way it works as an effect pedalboard without any extra modelling which is not needed when playing through a decent amp.
It's also convinient to have the modelling option there though, I use that when I travl and play though 2.1 speakes, Hi-Fi or headphones depending on the situation. -------------------- Guitars:

It has those features as well. I really find it handy when you are moving in different situations then again that depends on every case. -------------------- Visit my:

I really find it handy when you are moving in different situations then again that depends on every case. I'd say that POD X3 focus more on amp modelling while ME-70 strong point is in the effects. Or, looking at it from a different point of view, X3 is made for recording while ME-70 is made just to play
