Overall User Ratings

"Great Value, but performance dependent upon your Guitar and Amp."

This reviewer purchased this item from Same Day Music.

Feature:
There are many setting comginations that can be used to create a "signature sound." I already found one that blows my mind, based on my own individual way of playing. It also helps you electronicaly tune your guitar. That's always nice on a gig!

Quality:
Seems to be built very well.

Value:
Despite what I see as shortcomings, this product is great for the price. A smart player can squeeze and incredible amount of value from this thing :-) If you don't have a sound machine, buy it. Regardless of you personal setup, you can't buy the individual pieces for this price.

Desirability:
Very well designed (I'm a computer guy, so this thing makes a lot of sense, imo.) Sex Appeal??? I haven't kissed it yet :-) -- (Although I hear it calling to me, lol).

Sound:
This product is very nice, but really seems to be based on Fender Pickups. I prefer Gibson Humbuckings, which is why I assume some Sounds in/on the RP250 don't "sound" right. Having said that: for $150, this is a very sweet product. My Gibson SG & Marshall amp may not be able to get all the true sounds as advertised, but for the price, I get enough of them to make this product a great value. I wanted the "Accoustic" sound, but on my setup it still sounds very electric. Lots of Blues, Rock, and Metal sounds work for me tho.

Ease of Use:
Documentation could be a lot better. I used to write manuals for software; I am a software guru, and a sofware programmer -- so as a guitar player I know this manual doesn't seem to be written by players. All the "tricks" and "insights" are missing.

Overall:
For the price, and outstanding value. May not deliver everything advertised for your system -- but delivers more than enough, regardless, imo.

"NEW REVIEW AFTER AFTER SPENDING MORE TIME"

This reviewer purchased this item from Same Day Music.

Feature:
You can lost in this thing :-)

Sound:
Great!

Ease of Use:
I should begin at this point by saying I wrote an earlier Review, and saw some problems. Here is my advice: 1) Invest time to study the manual, but I believe it nees a lot of work. 2) Know that the Effects Level works on for the PRESETS (They are not carved in stone). 3) TONE LIBRARY has an ON/OFF function, but it ONLY works it EDIT Mode, so don't get confused about why it won't bypass or turn off the sound. 4) Incredible number of Sounds for the Price, so very worthy of the investment.
