hey there !! Dont go for 707II zoom...it sucks bigtime....go for some digitech processor....much better tones...and you can check out their website for custom patches....they sound awesome.. https://www.digitech.com/soundcomm/guitar_list_patches.asp?productid=202 Stranger amp should be good for home use...

thanks i am looking for mostly rock and metal kind of styles.is the zoom processor that bad.i found many good reviews about it.anyway i heard digitech rp80 and didnt like it at all.is zoom worse than that my god!help me out buddies.
guys what about korg processors are they better than digitech?comparing all three which one will be better korg ax10g digitech rp80 zoom 707II
Rs 30K. Woooooooooooo! Rock + Metal. I assume it is primarily 80s music. One more question: what effects you want along: delay, reverrb, chorus, flange, phaser, vibrato, pitch bending .... etc Tone: You need Marshally sounding distorted tone. Consider buying AMT British distortion. https://www.pedalgeek.com/cgi-bin/n...2ygAA1156831263&uzc=99999&command=link--amtbs ~ Rs 6K or Digitech Hot Head https://www.digitech.com/products/HotHead.htm ~ Rs 3K Both these pedals can be made available in India. These guys do: https://bajaao.com/ Amp: Stranger will do, Once you have a nice pedals to get good distortion. Ofcourse Marshall (solid state) amp will definitley sound better. But then you got budgetary issues. ~ Rs 10K If you need only one or two effects like one delay and one flanger, then you can consider pedals. ~ Rs 5K + Rs 4K However, if your need is a whole gamut of effects, better go for multiprocessor like Boss GT-6, Boss GT-8, Line 6 POD XT, Korg AX3000G, Zoom G7, Zoom G9. Incidentally, processors will also cater to the tone (distortion/overdrive etc), and hence you wont need any isolated distortion pedal. However, multiprocessors are very expensive. ~ Rs 25K
way to go alpha1!!!...effects processors do pack in lot of sounds, esp korg and digitech..and i find korg tones much more easy to manipulate than zoom...plus zoom tones tend to get scratchy, esp the low end processors... pedals give good,natural tones...but tend to get expensive....korg ax1500 and korg ax3000g are good options
thank you very much guys for the warm response.well i have become more confused on which to buy.hey "double click" i am from kottayam, kerala. Rs 30K is my total budget.well i think i will stick on to multi fx since i am a beginner and like to experiment with various types.stranger 80w costs around 7000.then guitar ibanez gsa60 -Rs 10500.left is 13000.processor ax1500g is that price.what should i go for zoom or korg?should i go for some other amp or guitar just close my deal for around 26000 and later buy some classic stuffs.come on guys give me some nice suggestions.anybody from kerala especially kottayam,would like to talk about your gear.
which one will be better stranger cube80 or stranger ns100.which one suits guitar most.latter has 120w and both reverb and distortion.i think i may be able to blow away my neighbours with that.just kidding.whats you guys' opinion on squier strats?
squier strats are crap .. zoom 7072 sucks .. digtech series rule ..wonder what made you dislike it ..
Look, basically Strangers suck.....just get a lower RMS Marshall instead or if ur keen on buying a stranger get 1 with a lower wattage n go for a GRG270DX its is much better compared to the p00p GRX60 and costs 14K. Oh n a Korg anyday man Zoom amp emulation is like the PSP emulating the N64...choppy and crap...Korg is much better..........All just IMO
you can get a marshall 15w amp for around 4.5k...way better than strangers...and the korg ax 1500g is somewhere around 12.5k (Delhi)...and ya the the korg 1500g is far ahead of the zoom 707 2
WoW Alpha that British Distortion Sounds Yummy,somewhat like a MD2 but without the Harshness.....its really good

i don't think anyone has tried out the new zoom series so there's not much that can be said about them. they have a much higher sampling rate of 96kHz so the sound is supposedly closer to the analog boxes. sound samples on the net can't really be trusted because they mod them to sound extremely good, something that you don't get from the product without a decent rig and time to fiddle with the settings. in comparison to the GFX-707II though, i guess the korg is better. but you can look at the zoom g7.1ut, although i don't know if it's available in india. it would be around Rs.14000-15000. https://www.americanmusical.com/item--i-ZOO-G71UT--m-668_667.html if not then there's the AX1500g which is quite reliable in terms of sound. ideally you should spend time with your pedal to dial in a sound you really like.
Sometimes it even sounds BAD due to limitations of the now redundant standards of current codec softwares. Anyday Looks quite promising...Lets see now how accurate the Models are
thank you guys ,i think i will try the zoom and learn all effect types and then later after i collect some more money?(which may not be for a year or two) will buy stompboxes or boss gt8 kind stuff.well amp i think i will go for a stranger for start.i didnt like the sound of marshall 15 that i tried in the shop.it was making a lot of noise but it was definitely better than stranger.but i need really loud sound so stranger i suppose.moreover the marshalls are made in india now whats the point in calling it foreign.after a while i think i will go for some serious buy like tube amps and high quality guitars.thank you again guys.will need you guys more for my beginning lessons for electric guitar.
