Prior to this video, I’d spent maybe a grand total of an hour with the POD Express - after some manual-diving, I was able to get up and running pretty quick. Join me in my longest video to date, for some fun explorations of a stellar all-in-one compact rig.
Thank you to Paul at Milehouse Studios for loaning me the POD Express - check out his channel for guitar building content: / @milehousestudios

Your video sold me the pedal !! I was skeptical for the high gain tones but I have to admit that the heavy and lead are pretty convincing in your video. Great playing

Thx for the demo/review. Would love to hear your thoughts on the Pod Express vs Hotone Ampero Mini ... like ease of use, tones, quality of effects, tune-ability, strengths/weaknesses. TIA.

Seems to pack quite a punch for such an affordable unit. Line 6 are packing features, once again

@KaiDown Ай бұрын

Yeah they crammed an awful lot into this unit for sure

I’m so on the fence for one of these … still not sure since I love combining the noodle gadgets with my Overdrive pedals and the Loop on the BOSS IR-2 is a huge feature to consider, but then again the pod express has most features one could need for noodles… I don’t know

Boss IR-2 seems like a cool bit of kit too - definitely integrates with a pedalboard better than the POD

Does this pedal have a true bypass?

No, it doesn't

I know theres a bass version , Will this work on bass?

@KaiDown Ай бұрын

I’d say you could coax a bass tone out of this without too much trouble - you’d have to turn the cabinet off, and probably stick to the clean amp, but it should be a usable tone in a pinch.

@@KaiDown thanks mate.

I went with a Superblock UK over this. If I wanted something like this, I'd get something else that was like this. Great video though. Probably my favorite pod express video yet.
