    crap. Just my opinion, but I can't f**ing stand all these new digital amps that emulate every great amp from the past.

    You could say that they're great for new guitarists because it gives them alot of options.
    I don't agree.
    What it does do is give you too many options, preventing you from finding what's great about guitar playing-finding a sound and working with it and calling it your own.
    I've been a guitarist for 11 years now, I'm a purist in the sense of analog only equipment, save for a digital delay pedal. Cannot stand digital all in one floor units whatsoever. I've got a a Tele, a Strat, a Crate vintage reissue tube amp, and one of the best amps ever made, Fender Pro 185 from about 1989. Look it up on the web. Bought it used in 1993 for $400 and trying to buy another one right now because in my band I have my setup in stereo from the chorus pedal to two amps. Want two 185's so it's even and balanced.

    Sorry to go on and on, but music is my life and I love playing guitar more than just about anything. I can't stand this new digital stuff because it steps away from the essence of playing music. Too many options, in my opinion, is not a good thing.
