Digitech BP200/Crate BX50 DLX

3 words....
1.NO
2.NO, and
3.NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

this has got to be the worst investment i have ever made...i bought it about 3 years ago and sure i was amazed and the amount of things you can do with it, but after about a year when i finally realized what was giving me that digital, weak tone.....so i threw that piece of crap out....

Do not make the mistake of buying the bp200, even if you're a beginner....sure it seems cool to have a multi-effects pedal but if yer gonna get one get a higher-quality one like the behringer v-amp for the bass....

(Somewhere along the lines i realized i dont even need any other effect for my bass other than overdrive, so i got a crate BX50 DLX 50w combo amp with 2 channels
1. clean - includes gain, and a 4-band equalizer
2. Overdrive - gain, shape, and volume

The BX50 DLX also has an Octave effect which is very sweet
-comes with a 2-button footswitch for octave on/off and channel switching.

So in conclusion

Digitech BP200 effects - 1/10 (being generous)
Crate BX50 DLX amp - 10/10, still satisfies my every need, on stage and off

You call behringer high quality??? All behringer products are cheaply made. Every single behringer thing breaks so easily and whats the deal with this IMPs thing they go on about... Invisible Mic Pre-Amp - Invisible, meaning it's not even there!!!
