Sorry for the duplicate post but I just was hoping Line 6 would read this.

Since I just picked my Firehawk up only a few days ago, I really don't have my feet fully wet yet but so far I am extremely impressed. I first had the Amplifi FX100 and upgraded to the Firehawk when I realized it would connect directly with my Variax. Love it so far.
Now if it had the same looper the JM4 Looper has built into it then to me it would be the ultimate. Maybe Line 6 would be able to add this looper into the next firmware upgrade.
Since I am to old now to carry heavy amps and I enjoy going to open jam sessions, the JM4 Looper does it all for me. All I do now is take my James Tyler Variax and the JM4 Looper, get to the jam and plug the looper into the house PA. Simple and light to carry....lol
I am a big fan of Hank Marvin and the Shadows and have a couple of preset tones close to his sound saved on the JM4.
The fact I can create, record and save a full backing track on the JM4 and then play it back and jam by myself is the ultimate to me. (Probably to many others too)
Now if the Firehawk could do the same then Line 6 that would really and truly be the ultimate. What blew me away was the Bluetooth editor on my Ipad, being able to search by typing in "Hank Marvin" and suddenly I have tones instantly and I do mean instantly. Well you all know that already but that is one of the big selling points for me. I already have a couple of tones saved that are much better than the ones I have on the JM4, thanks to those users who created them. Now only if it had the looper the JM4 has? The 28 minute JM4 looper is incredible over the few seconds the Firehawk has.
Line 6 please please please incorporate the looper from the JM4 into the Firehawk or for that matter a newer up todate than the 2009 version?
