"An effects box and practice tool that you will NEVER need to replace. NOTHING BEATS IT!"
Verified Purchaser
zZounds has verified that this reviewer purchased this specific product from us.
I will keep this little box forever! If it breaks I'll buy another one.
Sound
I really don't like a lot of effects, but htis thing sounds awesome! I use it a lot for practice with head phones and it kicks major butt! I have used the Pandora and this is way better! Sound quality is studio like. No noise, easy to use, presets are great! Plugged into my Ampeg SVT3Pro amps effects loop it sounds better than any effect I've ever used. The chorus and delay functions I especially like.
Features
Dial in a desired setting and rock! You will want to get a 4.5vdc power supply. I don't eat batteries, but you'll save money with the power supply. Haven't tried the footswitch, but thinking about getting one.
Quality
Very well made like all of Korgs stuff. Be careful not to drop it on tile or concrete, plastic housing will break. (not mine, my guitar player has one also)!
Value
Best for the money that I have ever tried, hands down, PERIOD! Sorry Korg, but this thing kicks the Pandora's ($200.00) butt! Rockman for Bass, forget it! Tascam CD-BT1, not even close! Digitech? Ha!
Manufacturer Support
Never had to use Korg support. Hope I don't have to! (remember my guitar players dropped unit? He sent it back for repair, and they sent him a new one!)
The Wow Factor
You play bass? You NEED this! Period!
