I have a Zoom G3X and a Line6 POD HD and they are both very good amp and effects simulators. I feel the POD HD has a better overall tone to my ears and more options such as mic simulation. The POD HD echos though do not work so well when set up to replicate Shadows echos because the delays are in series and cascade into each other and tend to give a little bit of a ringing tone. You can use the POD HD with your usual EFTP echo unit though or use the eTap VST plugin etc.
The Zoom G3X is better where the echos are concerned and it is of course the new EFTP tool with patches available for it via Charlie Halls site.
