You are right of course, the way both try to realize this is quite different. I haven't really tried the black box. Generally it is astonishing what a digital simulation can do and how easily you can get a decent sound. I myself still prefer a tube amp with a mic but constantly ask myself why I punish myself with all the hassle. Maybe I am too nostalgic ;) all the best @mariano:

I´m spanish from Madrid. About the comp Pod vs Tube man, I don´t understand how is possible compare un pre-amp and a (more or less) sound interfase with amp emulator.

POD is little bit more muted, and brings to my mind some southern rock kind of a feel, if it's played on humbuckers, i think You did record that on single coils(probably Start), didn't You? Anyway, thanks for article, great site! The Tubeman sounds better indeed, especially for the solo.
