The most important tool for practice since the metronome!

| Review By: Wilfried Geck | 8 months, 3 weeks ago

5 people out of 5 found this review helpful

Features:

Essential practice features. Loop play, slow down, guitar headphone amp with distortion and (a lot of) effects.

Quality:

Sometimes flimsily made. I go through one about every five years.

Value:

The power supply is very expensive and NOT INCLUDED! It is essential, however, because this machine will burn through a set of batteries in about 3 hours.

Overall:

I've been teaching guitar lessons professionally for over 25 years to more than 400 students. I think this is such an essential tool, I most of the time recommend it to the parents to buy rather than a first amp. It is cheaper than an amp, yet it is able to recreate most any sounds you can hear on every recording. The CD function allows the students to play along the music, and the loop function allows them to single out select passages and really practice them. The 1/2 speed function is something I wish I had had when I was starting out as a kid (it's infinitely easier than slowing down a record turntable with your thumb :-). It's easy to use, and doesn't require a whole computer setup to be started up if you want to start a quick practice session with a recording. All in all: I love it. In the last fifteen years I went through about three of them (yes I also always pack one when I'm touring), and I guess I'll keep buying them in the future.

I've playing for about 40 yrs now, I bought the Tascam GT2 to help keep my skills sharp. Spent about 150 bucks on it, hoping that it would last a couple of yrs, didn't last 3 months. I used it everyday for about 3 hrs a day, plugged it in the other day and it crapped out, wouldn't even power up. Called it everything under the sun. Taking it back for a refund.

First one didnt work at all. Second one, 1/4in.  jacks came loose and shorted after a short time. Also sounds like a great deal 99 bucks until you have to spend another $26.00 for a power supply. Batteries last less then 2 hours. I exchanged it for store credit

How I use this unit:  After attending the Jamey Aebersold summer jazz camp (2010), I got this unit for the purpose of helping me play faster tempos in straight-ahead jazz.  Basically, (1) putting in either an Aebersold play-a-long, or CD/transcription (Oscar Peterson, Bill Evans, Chick Corea, etc., etc.), (2) mastering at slow speed, and then incrementally increasing tempo (same way you'd use a metronome) to speeds faster than I was capable of playing before.  Works great.
