Street price will only be $200 each! Overall I've been really impressed with the value of my Zoom Multistomp pedals, so I'm guessing these will be like deluxe-sized versions of them. Muti-effects units, and Zoom products in particular, have come a LONG way in sound quality since I was first exposed to them when I first started playing guitar. Also, the amp modeling is getting rather convincing now, even on "value" units such as these. I'd say 10 years ago that amp/cab models mostly sounded like trash. Looking at you, Line6!
