Korg Ampworks Guitar Modeling Signal Processor Customer Review

Sound
SWEET!!!
I've compared this unit together with the Line 6's AM4 modeler for two weeks. The Korg totally smoked the Line-6.
With the Line 6. The tone controls only work at the extreme settings. The noise gate only partially works on some setting. The different models amps and carbinets don't sound that much different at all. The Line 6 is a piece of junk.
Features
Enough for the real guitar players. But probably not for those who heavily rely on heavy effects.
The N.R. (noise reduction) works so well, that if you play single coil guitars. Just the N.R. feature is well worth the price. Takes all of 10 seconds to set it up! And it's dead quiet and absolutely no audible side effects (opening and closing from most noise gates.)
Value
Buy it.
Manufacturer Support
Never needed any support from Korg yet. Been using their gears for years.
The Wow Factor
I own it.
Musical Style:
