The Line 6 POD is a series of digital guitar amplifier modelers produced by Line 6.

History

By the mid-1990s, Line 6 feared that digital modeling was beyond the reach of ordinary guitarists and sought to design an affordable, simple, standalone amp and effects modeler with a unique look.[1] This resulted in the company's breakthrough product, the 1998 POD, a famously red, kidney bean-shaped desktop processor that emulated 15 classic amplifier models with multiple speaker cabinet options and onboard effects. Premier Guitar described the original POD as instigating "a long-overdue liberation" from cheap practice amps and expensive vintage amps.[1] Following the success of the original POD, Line 6 increased the number of simulated amps to 32 and added cabinet emulation for the POD 2.0 released in 2000. This increased to 42 amps with 60 onboard effects for the 2002 POD XT, which had a companion model for bass, the Bass POD XT. Format changes came in 2003 and 2004, with the rackmount POD XT Pro and floor modeler POD XT Live, respectively.[1]
