Korg AX10G Effects Pedal...Wow


I was just listening to some sound bytes of the Korg AX10G guitar pedal.....wow!It is a compact multi-effect processor that packs a ton of dead-on amp and effect models generated using Korg’s highly acclaimed “REMS” modeling technology. Plus, it also comes with a built-in expression pedal for realtime control of your sound.Though being very basic in it's switches,only 2 with an additional real-time pedal for like wah and other effects,it still,for the price sounds great for an at home just practice type scenerio!Just plug into your break out box or practice amp and voila,access to some pretty cool sounds.And the price,well,on eBay...$50.00!!!Yep,thats right,it retails for $250.00 and street price around $150.00.I am comparing this to Zoom and others and it is a deal.A lot of great sounds for the price.Though it would be hard to use live for me.I require instant access to at least 10 unique patches for an average copy band playing variety,so i use a MIDI pedal with a 10 switch face.This gives me instant access to all 10 patches without having to go to another bank.But for home practice,the sounds and the price...wow!Here is a list of the goodies...
AX10G: Built-in Effects

• PRE FX(3):COMP, WAH/A.WAH, ACOUSTIC
• AMP TYPE(11):EQ, BTQ CLN, BLK212, TWD410, AC15, AC30TB, UK’70S, UK’80S, UK MDN, RECTO, FUZZ
• MODULATION(11):CHORUS, FLANGE, PHASER, TREM, ROTARY, FEEDBK, PITCH1, FILTER, U-VIBE, TALK, PITCH2
• AMBIENCE(11):SLAP, ECHO1, ECHO2, PP DLY, MULTI, AIR, ROOM, HALL, PLATE, SPRING
•NR (Noise Reduction) and Tuner

And here is the Korg link for details and sound bytes.Also for a guitarist not requiring as many patches to perform live it would be a great,inexpensive pedal to use!And check out the Marshall,Vox,Flange and Talk sound bytes....cool.And of course,the guy playing ain't shabby either!Again for the buck,the Korg AX10G is a big bang.
