Hi,
Does anyone here have one of these (Zoom G2.1u)? How does it compare
to other similarly priced products?
TIA, Mark.

Not completely sure of the prices off the top of my head, but I'd be
more inclined to go for one of the small Digitech units (RP150, 250)
over the Zooms. The amp models on the Zooms are always a bit
"plasticky" to my ears, whereas Digitech are now using the AudioDNA
chips (previously only used in the GNX range) in their budget units as
well.

Well I am very glad you are blocked. Look what you did to that poor
bunnies ears!

Clearly a very bad man.

This post contained no useful content. It is good and right that it is
also blocked.

Thanks for the info. The RP255 (presumably the replacement for the
RP250) is about the same price as the Zoom.

Unfortunately the local music shops do not stock the Digitech, mainly
only Zoom and Line 6.

Blimey... I'd say it'd be worth a trip to another shop to compare the
Digitech with the Zoom. Alternatively, ask your local shops *why* they
don't have major brands in stock ;)

There's only three music shops left within a 30 mile radius of me that
I know of (ignoring those that don't stock anything electronic). None
of them stock the Digitechs.

Sometimes it's down to how much stock the distributor expects the shop to
take before giving a dealership. Other times it's level of markup, product
popularity or dealer's preferences. There seemed to be lack of dealer effort
to get *anything* not already stocked, even when times were good. Now the
recession is the excuse.
