Incredible tone and awesome-sounding effects are at your feet with the Utopia G300 professional guitar system. They've loaded this baby with 64 factory preset sounds and 64 user presets for a total of 128 presets. Everything you need to create your own signature sound has been included in this multi-effects guitar pedal: 4 totally usable channels, 4-band EQ, and full bandwidth effects give you the tools to create awesome high-quality tones that will define and complement your individual guitar playing style.

The Utopia G300 effects pedal is easy to use and operate. Fully programmable, the G300 features easy-to-read Cool Blue LCD Display (no cryptic tables to decipher or matrix-led crossword puzzles just plain easy). Not merely a plastic toy, the Utopia G300 is built with a rugged metal chassis and roadworthy, professional-grade pedal made from metal with loads of expression control!

Channel selections allow awesome tones (Clean, Texas, British, and Mega). Pre-effects include wah, phaser, compressor. Post effects include chorus, flanger, pitch shift, tremolo, delay, and reverb. You also get Rocktron exclusives like a state-of-the-art Speaker Simulator (for excellent recording), Variac (tube sag emulation), and HUSH noise reduction.

When was the last time you plugged into Pop's old guitar amplifier? Most likely, never. So why buy a processor that promises you the sounds of old amps and cabinets? The Utopia G Series Professional Guitar Systems provide tone and effects processing for the next generation so you can be the player you want to be.

The G300 multi-effects pedal includes 128 total user programmable presets. The G300 provides USB audio recording and playback connectivity, built in tuner, glow in the dark pedalboard markings, illuminated footswitches, MIDI in and MIDI out/thru, assignable effect on/off, tap delay note quantization (1/16, 1/8, triplet, 1/4, 1/2 and whole), programmable pre-processing analog effects loop, and extra External Expression controller pedal port.

The Utopia G300 also provides Up/Down preset Bank by 10 with instant recall buttons and a 2nd mode with 10 instant access controller switches.

Not the flagship pedal I'd hoped it would be

Sadly, it's not very easy to use. I've owned Rocktron rack pieces like the Prophecy and Xpression and their interface is similar, but not intuitive.

If you know the basic Rocktron user interface you'll have an advantage. The manual is decent, but you'll find it has no "stomp box" drives for in front of the preamps... a strange oversight especially considering their competition.

I was hoping for something with a more natural sound than my Boss GT-10. I was sold on the idea that it wasn't modeling amps, but just generating tones.

The 5 preamps (Clean, Texas, British, Mega and Scorch) all have character and I enjoyed what each could do. The virtual Variac control was kind of interesting as well.

Unfortunately:

The HUSH (which has better name recognition than quality) did all the things you don't want from a gate. It sputtered and hesitated and cut things off too quickly or not at all.

The foot switching had a pretty long cut out between patches.

The Pitch Shift has a REALLY noticeable latency.

The chorus has a strange slapback delay quality and drops the level a staggering amount when engaged.

In summary, not awful sounding, but no better than the others in its price point.

2.5 = average.

I've been playing for 25 years in all kinds of gigging groups and I've gone through Line 6, Boss, Digitech, Zoom, Vox, etc for processors (not to mention various huge pedalboards). I've also owned and gigged Marshall heads, combos and pre and power amps; MESA Boogie Triple Rectifier Head and 2:90 power amp, 20/20 and 50/50 rack amps; Carvin Legacy Head and combo and V3 head, plus their TS100 and DCM150.

Hopefully that will give you an idea that I'm not just a kid throwing reviews around for fun.

One interesting note... I bought this for $399 from MF and the day I called to return it (the day I got it) the price was up to $489.
