I'm about to get rid of my ADA MP-1 in favor of a PODxt. For anyone who doesn't know, the MP-1 was the premier tube preamp in the 80s. Pretty much every 80s metal tone is contained in that box.

Anyway, I'm pretty fickly about tones, so I'm going back to a modeler. With all the Model Packs, the XT has like 78 amp models, plus different effects and cabinets.

Hopefully it'll keep me satisfied for a few months :)

Them PODxt look cool. I definately wouldn't buy one though before trying it out loads. Because as a general rule of thumb, multi's suck

Somewhere in the neighborhood of $150 (incl. shipping in the USA), if that's not too high a number. I haven't really researched the pricing on them.

I had the 2.0, and it rocked like a mofo. From what everybody with an XT has told me, it sounds better than the 2.0, and does a ton more stuff.

Up until the PODs, I totally agreed with you about the multi-effect deals sucking. However, I think Line 6 really upped the ante, and made everybody start making them sound good.

I have no problem shipping out of the country.... the only concern would be the power supply issue.

Is that a POD XT Live you are getting? Or the heart shaped pod? Either way I tried both at Guitar Center and loved them. I seemed to like the heart shaped one though.
