FEATURES:

A multi-effects unit that’s as easy as a stompbox — that’s the beauty of the new ME-70. The friendly, knob-laden design makes tone creation a snap, but with a powerful COSM® AMP section derived from the GT-10, the ME-70 takes the “EZ effects” concept to new heights.

• Dedicated knobs for each parameter for fast, friendly operation
• New COSM Preamp section derived from GT-10 and Legend series
• EZ TONE for quick, easy editing
• Four footswitches and Expression pedal
• PHRASE LOOP function in DELAY section, with 38 seconds of recording time
• Battery or AC (optional PSA-120s) operation
