Tight

I use a Carvin Legacy Tube amp and Guitar Rig, and both have their quirks. The tube amp is buttery smooth, but it loses clarity if you crank up the second and third channel. This pedal has single handedly solved that issue, and opened up my amp to a world of new tones. With Guitar Rig, it takes the normal, trashy digital sound and gives it life. I was hesitant about buying this, but I shouldn't have been.

The most...

...comfortable, easy to play, beautiful instrument I've ever played.

Now I don't have to leave my house

Before GetGood Drums it was only a matter of time until I had to go look for a drummer. Now I can sit at home, make some mouse clicks, and boom! No worries about making friends and socializing. Thanks Nolly & fam!

No latency, no difficulties

My knowledge of audio interfaces isn't strong enough for me to get into the nitty gritty, but I suppose if I can use it without issue, despite my limited understanding, that's a commendable thing.

Lifesaver

Not only will it save me money on microphones and cabinets, but it'll keep my ex-special forces neighbor happy. Definitely a buy.

Best Acoustic for an Electric Player

Of all the acoustics I've played, this one has been the most intuitive. It felt right from the start, and I'm inspired every time I pick it up. I won't be in the market for another acoustic in the foreseeable future.

Sounds Digital

It's useful software, but only for demos or practice.

Starcrossed

5 years ago I had planned to purchase a different Les Paul model, but this called to me from the racks of the local Guitar Center. It feels great, plays well, and it's worn nicely.

My only qualm is with the electronics. The pickups run through a circuit board instead of being hand-wired to the pots, which over time has produced a "tinny" sound when playing higher notes (That could of course just be a player issue, but I'd rather preserve my fragile ego and blame the guitar). But, as a lower-end Les Paul, it's understandable that they'd cut corners on the electronics. And if that's the only criticism, there really isn't much to complain about.

Still in love after 4 years.

I could gush about this amp, but no amount of adjectives would do it justice. In an case, here are three nuggets of opinion: (1) Mid-gain settings on channel 3 are butter. (2) The clean tone with its built in reverb is dreamlike. (3) I want to build a pedalboard, but with this head it seems glaringly unnecessary.
