I've noted multiple times in this blog that I have played guitar since I was a kid and I am still going to be a rock star when I grow up.

When I was in the USAF in Germany I spent way too much money on a Digitech effects processor. I guess it was probably cutting edge for 1995 but was such a piece of garbage that I would never even consider Digitech gear today.

I finally broke down and bought a line 6 helix last year. For the $$ it is an incredible piece of gear. I won't go into details reviewing it because there are plenty of other people that have done that way better than I ever could. It's awesome that guitar gear has come so far in terms of affordability and quality.

Can't imagine how nice it would have been to have a Helix when I was 16, 17, ..
