Headphone on a multieffect pedal

Postby Peveo » 11 Aug 2018, 11:45

well, is holiday season and going on vacation for a couple of weeks is nicer with a guitar at hand. Y want to use a cheap strat with a Line 6 pocket pod but here's the problem...
When playing over the Pod with a headphone it sounds like...#^*(##@!!)Sh>>>#$$ ....crap...

I'm no hifi specialist or whatsoever .....so is there a good headphone set out there that can be used with i.e a Line 6 Pod and have a good sound..
.Especially overdriven sounds are a pain in the...with the set y have at the moment ( Sennheiser HD205)


thanks

And i'm still collecting... :cowbell

Impossible to say what would sound best. You just have to try it with your guitar and the Line 6. Try some cheap ear buds, I bet they would sound fine.

It should sound fine! It can be intense to have earphones on but it uses to sound pretty OK.
I did it a lot before. Last 5-6 years I just used acoustic guitar during my vacation. Most important for me is to keep my fingers busy so I don’t get cramps easily on my first gig after vacation.
