Hi Metalheads,I am writing this review after using the processor for over 3 years and performing at 20-odd gigs that use advanced high-end amps (which are required to test the true potential of this beast). Mostly, I play metal and punk, and this is the appropriate companion for my Ibanez RG370DXZ (or any other electric guitar for that matter). Following is the detailed review of the product:Interface and Usability:As soon as you plug in the POD HD500, you realise that its damn easy to navigate.
