Really nice! An inspiration for those of hoping to do some blues soloing some day.

Definitely a nice feature, and you're quite right, being able to step and listen to yourself really gives you a whole different perspective on your playing.



I can't agree more. I have the JS-8, not the 10. There are some things that the 10 has that I wish the 8 had. but I bought my JS-8 about 5 minutes before Boss released the JS-10 and the concept is the same.

Recording oneself, while depressing, certainly gives one a new perspective on your playing. You can hear mistakes that you might not catch otherwise. For me recently it is some chords not ringing as clearly as I thought.

Plus, I have found playing with some backing tracks is just forcing me to get better.
