I've been playing for about 13 years, but the last 6 months (since my band split up) I've been so preoccupied with messing about with synths and Cubase that I've hardly played. Playing guitar in the house just doesn't compare with cranking up a JCM800 head through a 4x12 cab and feeling your trousers flapping against your legs (if you're wearing any!)
That said, I've got a Pod 2.0 and I'd love to upgrade to an XT - got more important things to splash the cash on first though!
