POD is a series of digital guitar amplifier modelers from Line 6. PODs are designed to digitally simulate amplifiers, as well as cabinet models and effects. All POD variants include headphone outputs and recording ports, and can be used to feed a signal into an amp or directly into a PA system. Some variants include USB for direct recording interface with a computer.

POD users include Dino Cazares of Fear Factory, who was one of the first professional users,^{[citation needed]} and Justin Broadrick of Godflesh and Jesu.^[1]
