I play on the pc abit and make homework. then its evening! In the evening, around 10 I get this urge to play the guitar soo bad. I also get most inspiration at this point. In the evening, I feel like it is not something I HAVE to do. It's odd ^^ But the problem is, I can't turn the amp up since we have neighbours and.... parents who watch tv... damn them! So I really want a pod! The x3 or Xt ,is too expensive , it's around 400 euro's . But the pod II is only 130 and I tested it and I looove it! I was wondering, could I download patches to the pod II?

I bought my pod XT for 160$ shipped it came in perfect condition, box manual and everything I'm sure there are some for even cheaper now. edit: oh you can try getting the pandora, never used it but heard it is good.

I'd say that the POD XT would be great . I have the X3 and it allows me to record bass and voice but as for guitar it's really close to the pod Xt You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

I have a POD 2.0, and ever since I got the Toneport...the POD sits on my shelf! The Toneport GX is all I use now! You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

What im saying is that if you like the POD II, but it doesnt download patches (dont know if it doesnt) its not a big deal. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

Problem with patches is that they might sound different depending on the guitar you use, so don't expect them to be extreamly good, as already mentioned you'll probably have to tweak them a bit.
