Hry guys, long time since my last post. Question? I am wondering what the consensus is between pod x3 live vs. pod hd 500x? Note, I am not a metal player. I play in church, and twice a week out, but it is mainly bluesy, rock, and ambient type tones. I have a full analog rig, and I'm just tired of it all. I want a one stop shop for direct to house tone. I like fat rock tones. and buttery blues.
I've heard Lincoln Brewsters tones off his old pod x3 live, and I believe he now uses axe fx2, But just wanted to get some thoughts on wether I should grab a newer 500x or just get an old x3 live since I don't do metal, nor do I put a ton of fx in my chain anyway.
P.S. I had a Pod HD500 back in the day, but just couldn't fully wrap my ears around it at the time. a friend had the X3 live then, and his tone smoked mine. Probably in the tweaking, but you get the idea of where I, wanting to go. Thanks.
