I have the Digital DR-1 and its a great rehearsal tool, you can record two tracks and it uses a 1/4 inch jack for Guitar or LINE LEVEL input. It uses a SD Card for memory and with a 4 gig card will record for 4-5 hours easily.

I sell them as well.

Kevin, I find Tascam's MPGT1 invaluable for practice - despite its flaws. Do a search in electronics for "guitar trainer" and you'll find a few reviews.

I dumped all my practice boxes and use "the Amazing Slow Downer" as Charlie suggests. I use a Roland micro cube which has a line in and I can mix the whole deal into phones.

The ASD software tracks and loops much better than any box Tascam or otherwise I have played. It will read just about any music file as well so it is good for backing tracks too. I loaded it in my laptop so I can take the whole little practice rig anywhere I want and even run totally on battery.
