Line 6 POD HD500 BASICS

What's up, guys?! I tried out a Line 6 POD HD500 (nope! no 'x' this time). In this video I cover the basics of the HD500 including choosing amps, effects, and footswitch assignments.

*Important note: After, returning the HD500 to my buddy who loaned it me, I discovered that my close up footage (of the screen) wasn't very good quality. Because of the similarity of the HD500 and HD500x, I decided to rerecord the close up footage with my 500x. There's a chance that what you see on the close up shots may not exactly match what you see on your HD500, but I feel that the general concepts will still apply. Thanks for bearing with me:)

A little about myself:
My name's Jon Eleyet and I like making videos about guitars! Sometimes the videos are about a goofy guitar that I made out of Fruity Pebbles, other times it's a tutorial about guitar tone. In either case, my goal is to make your life better by giving you a laugh or unlocking a new skill.
