Yea I have noticed the hiding behind distortion thing. I just know im hitting the notes on certon songs and it dosent sound like it at all. The timing is right just not sounding right. Ohhh well I'll look into the DigiTech first before I break down and purchase a better amp. What exactly is the digitech called?....I know that DigiTech is some sort of name brand. Just wonderd what the componet is called.
