Oops, didn't notice. Had to post this monstrosity though.

ehhh...I dont know about that thing. Probably better off spending $2k on a Mesa Mark V and a decent guitar. So what, this thing has all the "fX" built right in huh?

The nice thing about pedals is that you can use your feet to change tones, with no break in your playing. I will never understand why anyone makes guitars with onboard effects.

I hope mine comes with the awesome fret buzzing!

At least now you can dance(and no, tap dancing doesn't count!!!) while you break the rhythm of your hand

I've also heard it has bluetooth maybe it can be played remotely
