• Reviews around amp (3.50 of 5)

    Boss ME-80 Multi-Effects Pedal

    • The clean, tweed, blues amp simulations are outstanding
    • It makes my other amps seem weak now
    • This pedal board and a cheap but decent sounding solid state amp left in the orchestra pit do the job where they sound fine with no complaints from audiences or musical directors
    • Line 6 is a wonderful solid state amp with many huge epic sounds (don't get this board and just spend a little more and get a Line 6
    • If you have a solid state amp, it will still sound solid state, but if you have a tube amp, then you will get a closer feel
    • So..lengthy review..should you buy it?.While there is nothing particularly striking about anything that this board does sonically (home runs excluded), for the money you get a well made, portable, well thought out, very easy to use, decently sounding all in one set of stompers with an expression pedal and adequate amp models for most uses.highly recommended.
    • If you are looking for something to put in front of a clean amp to get a variety of tones, look elsewhere
    • Although a small amp, the Mustang GT40 is 10,000 times easier to edit and manage effects than with the ME-80
    • This pedal board and a cheap but decent sounding solid state amp left in the orchestra pit do the job where they sound fine with no complaints from audiences or musical directors
    • The downside is the overdrive, Cosm amps, and distortions are very poor
    • The Clean and Tweed amp emulations are my favorites
