Line 6 POD X3 Live Review

(More customer reviews)
I love my Line 6 POD X3 Live Guitar Multi Effects Pedal. With this modern marvel, you should be able to achieve just about any tone you can imagine (the Line 6 website explains its capabilities in detail). With a little experimentation, you should be able to easily find your own unique tone.

After a brief tutorial, and a few minutes with the included manual, it was easy for me to dial through the hundreds of amazing presets. While this device is quite easy to use right out of the box, it might take years to discover all of its capabilities. Mostly I am using the POD X3 Live to replace my existing effects pedals (distortion, chorus, flanger, delay, wah) for use with my Stratocaster. I doubt if I will ever use those pedals again. I am using the device plugged directly into the guitar input on my amplifier; it sounds great.

I also appreciate the built-in tuner (which mutes while tuning, of course), the headphone jack, the microphone input, and the USB output (to use your computer for recording and mixing). Another great feature, is its ability for separate tone processing of the guitar and microphone (vocal) inputs.

I would really love to have a comprehensive instructional DVD that explains how to setup the various "stomps" and "mods." The manufacturer (Line 6) does have many instructional videos posted on their channel on a popular video website; but it would be nice to have select instructional videos (on a DVD) shipped with the product.

Line 6 POD X3 Pro Guitar Multi Effects Processor Review

Line 6 POD X3 Pro Guitar Multi Effects Processor
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Line6 gear is used by some of the biggest pros in the industry. Why then, is this unit which is labeled as "Pro" such a disappointment?

The GOOD: The sound is typical Line6. If you liked it before you will find it good now. The interface is a little confusing at first but can be learned quickly. There are knobs (and not just buttons) that allow adjustment of parameters in real time. The overall unit, although lightweight feels fairly sturdy. There are multiple inputs and even an effects loop in the unit itself for the addition of other effects.

The BAD: The knobs on the unit feel weak and spin freely as if they will fall off or break at any moment. Many of the presets while decent, sound similar. Effects are limited- if you buy this make sure you really need amp modeling and not just effects as the latter is lacking sorely and sound generic. There is a ton of hum generated by this thing. Doesn't matter if you lift the grounds, use it in front of the amp, in the loop or with the "4 cable" method. It hums and I could not stop it from humming badly.

While using mine the sound abruptly died more than once and resumed a few seconds later without explanation. Saved presets mysteriously disappeared and more than once I turned the unit on and was greeted by nothing but the blank orange screen...nothing else and no sound. While switching presets was typically silent there was on occasion a hiss or pop while switching. This was not typically a repeatable event which was even more frustrating.

The UGLY: Midi implementation is still not included fully in this "pro" unit. You might be able to change presets but your expression pedals probably won't work...even Line6's own FBV pedals do not fully work with this thing...is that a joke? The X3 Live folks have been waiting a year for full midi.

Upon ordering you are promised the full version of "Pod Farm Platinum" free by many sites. This is not without major catches. The software only runs as a VST plugin AND requires you use your unit as a giant "dongle" of sorts or Pod Farm won't work. So every time you want to use Pod Farm you'll need to drag a full size rack unit to your PC and hook it up...stupid.

Overall, if you really need good amp modeling and are running straight into a board or power amp then this unit might be for you. Most would be better served looking for another unit though. The PodXT is time-tested at this point and can be had cheaply on auction sites or here on Amazon. I would recommend that unit until this one is REALLY ready.

Split your single-input guitar or bass signal through two different amp and effect chains simultaneously to create gorgeous new hybrids, or use its dual inputs to individually process two instruments-a microphone and a guitar, for example-at the same time.Computer-based studios will want to exploit the USB 2.0 connectivity provided by POD X3 Pro for multi-channel recording as well as its S/PDIF or AES/EBU Stereo Digital Audio I/O for sending a direct digital signal to their DAWs. For additional recording and processing flexibility, POD X3 Pro also includes software plug-in functionality for integration with DAW recording applications.Over USB, you've got the ability to record any or all of 8 different signals running through the POD X3 Pro. The 1/4-inch and XLR inputs can be used to simultaneously record two individual instruments or microphones to separate tracks in your DAW, each in stereo and each with the option of recording the dry mono signal at the same time. (This is perfect for going back after you've recorded a track and adding a little magic with the included plug-in.) In addition to the dual stereo and mono options, there's also a stereo blend being sent down to your DAW that matches exactly the blend coming out of the stereo 1/4-inch outs.Amps and CabsQuite simply, there has never been an amp modeler with this much sheer firepower.

Line 6 Bass POD XT Pro Review

Line 6 Bass POD XT Pro
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Most of the guitarists I know own a Line 6 POD, a little device that looks like a large red lima bean with knobs and buttons on the top. When I first heard of the Line 6 Bass POD Pro, I was curious, as my guitarist friends considered their guitar POD to be indispensable.

I had the opportunity to try one of these out, and right away I knew I wanted to buy one, and soon did. One of the first things you can do is play with the various effects it gives you, like having a bunch of foot pedals linked together. For live sound, you can use its various built-in effects or simulate a cabinet and feed your signal directly to the PA, but I normally just run through my bass cabinet for shows, because for smaller shows, the PA might not have enough low end, and your signal is blended with the rest of the band, so the shaping of sound the POD can do is largely lost when it gets mixed in with everything else the PA is doing. Besides, it looks weird to not have an amp and speaker cabinet near the bass player.

Where this unit really shines, however, is in the recording studio. Many bands will go into the studio, set the drummer up in a large room with lots of mics, and get good drum tracks laid down, while the guitarists, keyboardists, vocalists, bassist, and so forth sit in the control room and play along on "scratch" tracks. The band then goes back and re-dubs the other instruments onto real tracks, one instrument at a time.

Ordinarily, you'd either plug the bass directly into the input on the mixing board, or, less commonly, set up your bass amp in a recording room and mic it, and feed that signal into the mixing board. Most bands spend a lot of time getting a good sound out of what comes out of the mixing board, by tweaking the mic, tweaking the EQ on the input channel, and so forth.

With the POD, you can plug your bass into the mixing board, set the EQ flat, and record your track. Then, when you go to mix down, you can run your bass track through the POD and make it sound like you're using any one of a ton of amp/cabinet combinations. This lets you experiment - "what would it sound like through a 4x10 cab instead of a 1x15?", "how would it sound if I used a tube head instead of solid state for the bass solo?" and so forth - things you could only do by setting up another set of real equipment and re-recording the track if you didn't have the POD.

You can also apply various effects, such as reverb, flanger, distortion, etc. If you're using a recording environment that lets you apply a filter to a track by running through a piece of external equipment (such as how they often add reverb to vocal tracks), then the POD gives you virtually unlimited control over how your bass track sounds in the finish product.

I rate this 4 of 5 stars for a few reasons. First, the S/PDIF sound quality leaves a little to be desired. There's no sense having such killer effects and emulations, then muddying them with a less than perfect A/D converter. I'd use an external A/D if you want a digital signal.

Second, the unit is not very deep. This makes it impossible to stack anything on top of it, and if it is mounted in a rack, it makes it so you have to use a flashlight and reach into the depths of your rack case to plug wires into the back. It's nice that they can package it so tightly, but they could easily just extend the chassis back a bit to make the jacks easier to access.

Overall, this is a solid piece of equipment, both in terms of features and reliability.

Product Description:
One look at the C-1 Classic and you'll be ready to pick it up and play. With its gorgeous quilted maple and transparent finish, intricate abalone "vine of life" fretboard inlay, and classic chrome hardware it's a sight to behold. The sound won't spoil the magic either--premium hardware like Schecter's new locking tuners, a TonePros TOM bridge, a classic pair of tasty Seymour Duncan humbuckers, and a speedy rosewood fretboard make this beauty ready to deliver, whether you're a jazz cat or a raging rocker.
A neck-thru-body beauty with killer tone and playability. Click to enlarge.


Seymour Duncan JB (SH-4) and Jazz (SH-2n) pickups deliver perfect tone.


Schecter locking tuners for added tuning stability.


Graph Tech "Tusq" nut for added richness and harmonics.


Built for Tone, With Looks to Match
The C-1 Classic features neck-through-body design for massive tone and sustain, and Schecter's "Ultra Access" for hitting those high frets. With its mahogany body and quilted maple top (highlighted by the transparent finish), it looks just as good as it sounds.The abalone "vine of life" completes the visual package, decorating the entire rosewood fretboard. The 25.5" scale maple/walnut neck boasts 24 jumbo frets and a crème binding, for playability and style.Seymour Duncan Pickups
In the bridge position is the SH-4, a hot-rodded humbucker that provides powerful output without losing highs. Great for everything from heavy blues to heavy metal.The neck pickup is an SH-2n, which is a classic moderate output humbucker, with a full tone and a little extra sweetness in the treble region, great for fast runs and beyond.Schecter takes advantage of the coil-tapping on both pickups with their 5-way mega-switch, allowing various combinations of single- and double-coil and series/parallel settings for a variety of tonal options.Graph Tech "Tusq" Nut
The precision Tusq nut is made with Graph Tech's "man made ivory," which couples the strings' vibrations to the neck and is impregnated with Teflon to improve the tuning performance of your guitar. Play as hard as you want, bend a few steps, and your strings glide back into tune. The highly resonant material also means you'll get more richness and harmonics from every note.Dependable Hardware
The TonePros Tune-O-Matic bridge with string-thru-body design means even more sustain and harmonics, and combined with Schecter's locking tuners gives you stable tuning and more control over your sound.

Schecter Hellraiser C-1 Electric Guitar (Black Cherry) Review

Schecter Hellraiser C-1 Electric Guitar
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
It was July of 2006, my band was about to play a show and my main guitar was falling questionably out of tune during songs at practice, so I went on a quest to get something new, that's when I stumbled across this guitar I knew nothing about, a c-1 Schecter Hellraiser. Mahogany body and neck with a carved maple top, nice arched fret board with a great feel to the neck, and powerful EMG pickups give this guitar an awesome punch. The 25.5 scale makes this PERFECT for detuning without any string flapping.
My experiences with this guitar, I have nothing bad to say about the guitar, other than the fact that when I wasn't using it live in favor of another guitar, I paid dearly, but the second I plugged the Hellraiser in, not a bad show, not flying out of tune, just very dependable.
A lot of people will frown on the Mahogany wood choice, but I've dropped this several times, (thrown once during a rock star temper tantrum) and the guitar keeps on ticking, and most importantly, the red finish still looks gorgeous!

I am so glad I took a chance on this guitar, it feels like no other import I have ever played and Schecter has done a great job with the Hellraiser series.

Product Description:
Schecter's Hellraiser C-1 lives up to its name. Not just because of its fiery red quilted maple top, but its screaming hot EMG active pickups, set mahogany neck, gothic cross inlays, and plenty more--perfect for veteran shredders and those about to rock.


Raise some hell. Click to enlarge.
Shredder-friendly EMG active pickups.
Schecter locking tuners.
Raise a Little Hell
The Hellraiser C-1 features a mahogany body to provide smooth, detailed sound. The quilted maple top adds a little more punch to the sound, and more than a little punch to the guitar's looks--it's a real knockout paired with the devilish transparent red finish and abalone binding.
If you're a fan of serious sustain, you'll appreciate the three-piece set mahogany neck. It's topped off by a speedy rosewood fretboard with 24 X-jumbo frets and wicked-looking "gothic cross" inlays.
EMG Active Pickups
The EMG-81TW in the bridge position gives you all the crunch and aggression of a standard 81 with a single-coil mode for a different sound. Dual internal preamps grant each mode its distinct sound while still providing EMG's well-known noise canceling technology.
Up by the neck, the EMG-89 also offers two pickups in one. Loaded with Alnico V magnets and featuring separate preamps for dual coil/single coil modes, these pickups will let you get a warm, powerful humbucker sound or a chimey single-coil strat sound.
Each pickup gets a volume knob with push/pull coil tap, and they share a tone knob. The 3-way switch lets you dial in a neck or bridge sound.
Graph Tech "Tusq" Nut
The precision Tusq nut is made with Graph Tech's "man made ivory," which couples the strings' vibrations to the neck and is impregnated with Teflon to improve the tuning performance of your guitar. Play as hard as you want, bend a few steps, and your strings glide back into tune. The highly resonant material also means you'll get more richness and harmonics from every note.
Dependable Hardware
The TonePros Tune-O-Matic bridge with string-thru-body design means even more sustain and harmonics, and when combined with Schecter's locking tuners, ultra-stable tuning no matter how hard you're rocking.

Schecter Hellraiser C-1 Electric Guitar (Gloss White) Review

Schecter Hellraiser C-1 Electric Guitar
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This guitar is great! I play guitar since 17 years and I tried many brands and models, and I can tell you that this one is something special. First of all, it is a beautiful instrument with a wonderful finish (especially for a korean guitar that are very variable on that point of view) it is very pretty and well designed.

It is important to know that I don't personally much like mahogany guitars neither rosewood fingerboards (I'm a Fender american stratocaster maple neck and ash body fan and owner) but this guitar changed my mind about both woods. The mahogany body is surprisingly light and the neck is fast and pleases the hand.
Now the pickups : Well here is the only black spot. These active EMGs and very nice and not as typed as much EMGs (usually I don't like this brand much, DiMarzio got my heart here). They are pretty versatile especially due to the coiltap system, but they are not as silent as told... These simply doesn't like computers and power supplies that can cause a lot of hum, this can be stressful sometimes. Except that, they are very nice, work well with the mahogany body (and neck) and don't make much noise with a guitar combo.
The playability is wonderful, great access to the 24 frets, the neck is just right pretty similar to my stratocaster's neck, mine may need a little fret job because of some fretbuzz on the low E, but nothing serious.

Overall, this is a light, very playable, great looking, nice sounding cheap guitar. Try it, it's worthy.

Schecter C-1 Custom Electric Guitar - 3 Tone Sun Burst Review

Schecter C-1 Custom Electric Guitar - 3 Tone Sun Burst
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This is a great guitar--got it super-fast from Amazon, as usual.The action and playability are excellent, and access to the upper frets is good as well.I'm a huge Schecter fan (this is my fourth one), and they are well known for building quality instruments with good components at [relatively] affordable prices...that said, I give this only 4 stars because of the following:

*The tone knob on my instrument was not completely secured, so it jiggles around a bit within the body of the guitar--but only if I intentionally move it around.Since I pretty much just dime all the knobs out anyways and rarely mess with them, this isn't a big deal for me, but it does seem like something that Schecter's quality control folks should have caught before shipping.

*There is a minor blemish on the top of the neck (by where the top position markers are that are facing the guitar player) on the third fret; the finish has a small 'bump' in it that I do notice occasionally, but again it's very minor and not a big deal at all.

Just for fun, I removed the back panel to see if I could tighten the tone knob myself but it's not as simple as you would think--I couldn't fix it.I probably could have returned the guitar and gotten another without any problems, but to be honest I'm just not that picky and neither of these items bother me.The instrument does play well and stays in tune quite nicely, and the wood looks absolutely beautiful (I got the tobacco burst color, I believe it's called)...it has a deep, rich color and texture to it that is quite impressive upon close inspection.

If you like Schecter guitars and the Fender body style, this is a great guitar that is very playable and relatively inexpensive compared to some of the competition.If you are also very picky about your guitars, make sure you give it a good look-over before you keep it because you may find a minor blemish here or there that would necessitate repair work or a return if it bothers you enough....good luck!

This was one of the first basses I ever owned, and I can quite honestly say it was one of the best. It had stellar looks with a powerful meaty sound. It always turned heads, it was a monster. It had low action and I had it tuned down to C and it kept in tune always. It handled everthing I could do to it, as well as others. One of the best made basses around.

Chrome-finish hardware includes an adjustable bridge and B.C. Rich die-cast machine heads. Also has single volume and tone controls. Add to this the classic 4-inch line pointed headstock and you have a bass guitar which looks the part.

B.C. Rich passive split pickup and stop adjustable tailpiece.
Chrome diecast tuners.
Basswood Body With Beveled Top
Basswood provides a warmer tone than maple and other hardwoods, along with great low-end response, and is overall a lightweight wood.The notorious Warlock body shape requires no introduction, and looks great in glossy black.Beveled Top
Most of B.C. Rich body styles employ a beveled edge around the shape. In many ways bevels on a top are similar to facets on a cut stone. They catch the light and reflect at different angles giving the instrument more of a three dimensional look. Some of the B.C. Rich top bevels are extreme and wide while others are subtle and narrow. Occasionally the shape of the instrument is accented by painting the bevels a contrasting color.Bolt-on Neck Construction
A number of B.C. Rich guitars use a classic bolt-on construction. On these instruments the neck is bolted on with 4 screws to the body. This construction offers some added flexibility in the instruments adjustment and provides the option of changing the neck in the future.The Warlock bass features a maple neck with an ultra-playable satin finish, and a 24-fret rosewood fingerboard with pearloid dot inlays.


24 frets means access to a few extra notes, with a full two octaves on each string--and the deep cutaway means you can actually access them.B.C. Rich Bass Pickups
All B.C. Rich imported bass guitars are equipped with either passive or active EQ B.C. Rich bass pickups. These factory B.C. Rich pickups give a good solid response across the bass spectrum eliminating unwanted muddy undertones. The center detent tone pots give the player a wider range of sweeping tone control to provide the maximum low end clarity and power.Hardware
The Warlock features a stop adjustable tailpiece, for getting proper intonation. The chrome diecast tuners offer solid tuning, and feature a chrome finish to match the bridge and volume/tone control knobs.
