i dont have one, but i have passed experience of using zoom effects pedals and they kind of suck but u can use them for anything, not just metal

Not even the tuner on the 606 is usefull.

plastic pieces of shit, all that zoom shit is crap.

if you need a multi effect, get a descent one, like a korg ax-1500g or a boss GT-6 or something.

if you only need good distortion get something simple like a boss metalzone or something like that.

some zoom effects are nice, there are some that arent manufactured anymore.

probably not the digital ones?

the only thing they're good for is firewood

LIAR!!! Thier made out of plastic... very cheap plastic that would burn up in a second.

Haha I had a zoom pedal too. It sucked on so many levels
And the crappy distortion comming out of it was just the least of problems

And why do they even include those useless tuners on their pedals?

i better think more to decide,and save more money

sad but true, if you want something good, you got to pay the price

i borrowed my friends brothers pedal, ITS SUCKED! it was 707 though...

and that one's even better

tc electronics g-major...... tons of usable effects, nothing else... no amp modeling or other worthless crap that digitech and zoom throw in their cruddy fx pedals to make them seem worth it.
$500 u.s.d., but well worth it when teamed up with a midi preamp or something.

6 years ago I had a 505 because I needed some extra FX... What a piece it was. Got rid of it first chance I had, because some things are cheap for a good reason. Good for beginning guitarist on small watt amps, but move on to better things and fast.

listen dude stay away of all zooms... i have the 505II (100$ or something) and it totally sucks. but it's good while practicing in your own room or something. just set up some nice distortions and plug in your headphones.
but that's about it. don't even think about pulling off a gig with it, cus the feedback gets like outrageous. it might be alright for beginners, though.

the only way that it might be useful, is by muting it and using the tuner. nowadays i only use the damn thing for the tuner. its like a idiot-proof model, it displays the note and tells which way to crank the tuners. great...

ok guys another very boring question, i got 250$,then what should i buy? pls answer according to your experiences.and think about that i will never be able to pay 350 or more

thanx again

digitech valve fx is nice for the price, team it up with a combo,head,poweramp,cab or whatever and you'll be good to go... nice effects and a decent preamp.. they're discontinued so you'd have to find one used.
