The Johnson amp's Belew has been seen using are basically Digitech 2120's (internal tube and solid-state preamp) built into a solid-state amp. The JStation is all digitally modelled - a completely different animal. There are interesting reviews of both the Pod and JStation at Sound on Sound (www.sospubs.co.uk). I suspect Belew will sound like himself no matter what he plugs into. My personal choice is a Pod + external FX -- let each box do what it does best. I had a Digitech 2101 for quite a while, and though it has some great tones, I think the Pod has the edge in that match-up.
