Great sounds, full potential only accessible with iPad or PC, still no Android support
I think enough people talked about the sound quality of it, and some of the effects and factory patches are pretty unique and beautiful. Besides, that's hard to judge, as one person's dud is another's revelation.
I would like to be able to chain some different effects together, but alas, you can't do that, without buying more boxes...
So this is far from replacing my Korg Pandora Stompbox, which may not match the H9 in many ways, but it does really let me create my sound with a chain of effects within itself. So I use the H9 to do what the Korg either can't do or isn't as good at.
Together, they may seem an odd couple to many people, but between them, I miss nothing. On the rare occasions I want something really crazy, I usually prefer to do those alterations in the DAW anyway.

Clear, ringing, sweet and balanced sound - stays in tune like a Steinberger
Its one of Emerald's smaller body guitars, but its still quite loud.
- great sustain for an acoustic guitar (one-piece construction)
- great, fast double truss neck, action like an electric, depending on the strings you use.
- well balanced sound across the range
- a subtle, beautiful sound quality I did not expect from a carbon fiber guitar
- high quality pickup and preamp w. tuner, it sounds great amplified as well
- Impervious to temperature and humidity changes
- coming from the tropics and getting off a plane in a dry frost, its still in tune...
- Gotoh 510 tuners
superb finish
"Amber" color looks more like a very dark brown in most lighting conditions, because the carbon fiber weave is, of course, pitch black. It does give the occasional flash of amber, when the light hits it just right.
I couldn't find anything else to complain about and so I sound like a company shill :-/
