TC G Major?

Anyone have experience using it? I'm thinking about getting one to use with my Pitbull. I especially like the fact that the G Major can do amp channel switching (or so I've heard). I have heard...

Dragonforce is mediocre at best. I've seen them live and they are SLOPPY as hell (just watch some on YouTube). They over-produced the crap out of the album to cover up their shoddy playing. A classic...
