I’m posting this blog to help others and to share my experiences and trials with the Line 6 Pod X3 Live unit, which I must say unequivocally, that I love. I play acoustic, electric, bass and sing and I’m highly technical (work on computers for a living) so I enjoy presets, configurations, settings and saving patches anyway.
My primary music outlet is I lead worship at my church regularly. So I have the luxury of the same PA every time I play and, with the exception of levels and rarely EQ-ing at the soundboard should the soundguy be feeling particularly ambitious that weekend...a preset of settings should sound pretty consistent from week to week. So this made a lot of sense for me. If you have a similar setup, this might also be helpful for you.
Guitars
I used two different guitars.
1. Taylor 314CE with a stock Fishman 3-band active Preamp/EQ. This is an UST pickup (under saddle transducer).
2. Yamaha from the mid-70's dreadnaught with a Sunrise S-1 picking. This is a passive magnetic soundhole pickup that's permanently installed (and surprisingly sounds GREAT!)

Tell me - can you use a POD X3 with two guitars? It only has the one 1/4" jack - but could you use an XLR/mono converter and plug a second guitar into it as well?
Sorry it took so long to get back to you iceman. But yes, you can. It actually has more than one input jack. It has one 1/4" jack labeled "Guitar In", it has another 1/4" jack labeled "Aux Input" which you can use for a guitar, and there's also an XLR input, which as you guessed, you could use a convertor for.
