Zoom G3X

[dave robinson]

Thanks for that, i'll try and give it a go tomorrow. All being well, i should be going to the Hankies tomorrow, as long as i feel well enough

Would you try and let me know via message or on here so I don't make the 140 mile trip unnecessarily,
I'd sooner make the trip and be useful rather than just turn up and do nowt.

And . . . If we don't do it this week I'll have my new axe next week.

I tell you what then, why don't we make it next week? and i can have a look at your new axe then I've just had a look at the link Roger posted of the review of the guitar you've ordered, Is it the trans red Fiorano? Very smart looking guitar.
Plus It will give me more time to play with my new pedal aswell then.
Cheers

Well if my mate Steve is up for it I still may come tomorrow, but I'll come next week definitely.

I'll have time to work on some more patches too, though I could do a gig with what I have up to now.
I am genuinely excited about this new Zoom, I never thought I would say that !

Good on you, I can't wait to get my head around mine and start using it properly.
See you soon

Is it worth paying the extra few £'s for the "X" version, is the pedal really useful or just an extra that can be done without missing out on anything important ?

Cheers

Hi Dick,
I've just had a look at the zoom G3, cheapest i could find it was £89 + £7.95 p&p, then it said you needed to add the FP02 expression pedal to it if you wanted to use that. The cheapest i found these was Ebay ranging between £30-£35 new. I paid £130 for the zoom G3X, with free p&P from soundslive, came the next day aswell so fast delivery. I believe it was worth the extra £10 to have it all in 1 system for neatness. I'm sure there will be a song you will want to play, where this will come into it's own use, and kick yourself for not having the pedal on it already. I'm still working mine out so can't comment strongly on the full capabilities of it, but it is a well constructed and robust effects pedal to me. Hope this helps

Is it worth putting a set of strings on a guitar ?
Do you really need to ask ?

You could be right there Dave, but as I have a Zoom "2" & "7" both with pedals & can't remember when I last used the pedal for anything more than just playing around with it to see what it would do was why I asked the question


The £98 delivered price you saw will do for me Ryan, I haven't bought anything this month so I'll probably just get one of those unless I come across the pedal version at a good price
If I ever do need a pedal to wah wah or whatever you call it, there's always the Cry Baby sitting in the cupboard

Cheers

Dick.

[dave robinson]

OK Dick point taken. I use my pedal a lot.

This is where i saw the G3, it's a company in Germany i think. Was actually £86.25 and not £89, sorry looked at a few. You may get it cheaper if you have a look around further, mine was a quick search, Good Luck and enjoy
