New toy

I just got back from Guitar Center with my newest toy.  I had been wanting to get a pod of some kind for several months now, mainly for the amp modelling and the ability to plug directly into a PA or board rather than lugging around my amp.  The other aspects of them are fun too, like the different effects and recording ability.  So anyway, after many months of deliberation (and waiting for my bonus check) I had decided on the following:

Product description here.

I got a nice deal on it, too.  I also picked up an extra 15' cable, some decent Sony headphones, and a case (with foam cutouts) to go with it.  The whole thing wasn't exactly cheap, but the guy took $150 off the list for me so overall I am happy with the deal.  Plus I have 30 days to make up my mind whether or not to keep it.

So tomorrow I will begin screwing with it, tonight I'll go over the manual a little.  One nice thing about this pod is its versatile; you can use it for bass, guitar, and even singing.  Hopefully this is everything I am expecting it to be.  Time will tell.
