I bought it to have a headphone amp to practice with and I returned it after a day of playing with it. I thought the amp models were weak and mostly unusable, and the reberb was especially dissappointing. I exchanged it for the Line 6 Pocket Pod Express for only $30 more and I'm so glad I did. All the sounds on the Pocket Pod Express sound cool and it has 2 kinds of sweet reverb awesome! I do like the way the iGTR looks, but it doesn't make up for the sound quality.

Don't waste your money on the iGTR unless you just can't afford the extra 30 bucks for the Line 6. The iGTR will do it's job, just poorly.

Portability--10/10

Lightweight and small, the iGTR comes with sturdy belt that stays in place.

Ease of Use--7.5/10

The sound controls--everything from overdrive to spaced out phaser effects are simple enough to access via three rotary interfaces. Unfortunately, the rotary controls feel chinsey. Using the volume controls for both the guitar and auxiliary inputs is also a sad story--the side mounted rotary dials are both outdated and of low quality.

Sound Quality--6/10

The problem with this unit is that many of the electronic components are of low quality, including the headphone jack and auxiliary receptor, the volume controls, and the preamp--all of which significantly effect the sound.

Overall--7.8

iGTR keeps the neighbors happy when you are inspired at 2 a.m. and has a multitude of sounds effects but don't be surprised by that first burst of volume through the headphones when using those rotary volume pots designed for AM radios in the 60's.

I really like this pocket amp, it has many different sound options and levels; delay, chorus, reverb, wah, trem, phaser, warm, norm, and bright. It sounds good although I've never used it as an effects input to an amp. It does seem a little cheaply made but it's also cheaply priced. One note if you start getting output drop-out change the batteries.

Agree that is feels a bit cheap, but it is solid enough for its use, performs well, batteries seem to last. All in all a great little device.

Tiny but full of features. I velcroed mine behind the bridge of my practice guitar so I can just walk around with it wearing headphones at 3:00 AM and not bother my neighbors. I got a short 18" amp cord to run from the guitar to the iGTR. Works amazingly well. Try this: In addition to the iGTR, velcro an MP3 player to the guitar and feed its output into the aux input of the iGTR. Use the MP3 player to play a jam-track for you to play along with and you have the perfect practice machine. I love this thing.
