Line6 Pocket Pod Pack Gets You Started

It’s difficult to own a guitar and not have heard of Line6’s POD range. If, however, you’ve still not got your hands on one, or simply find the plethora of accessories you might need to get the most out of it just a little overwhelming, you might be interested in the Pocket Pod Pack.

The Pocket Pod Pack comes packed with a plethora of perfect peripherals to provide a pleasant and portable out of the box POD performance.

More specifically, the Pocket Pod Pack includes “a 1/4-inch guitar cable for connecting a guitar to Pocket POD, a 1/8-inch auxiliary cable for connecting an MP3 player to Pocket POD, earbuds for silent practice, a DC-2 power adapter, a USB cable, and a CD-ROM that’s loaded with jam tracks and Pocket POD tone-editing software.”

Alas, there’s no word on a carry case for all of the above, which would have been a nice addition for something designed to be portable. At £125.35 it’s a pretty good buy for an amateur guitarist, but a little too late for the Christmas rush, so you’ll have to find another excuse to pick one up.
