A bit about me, I have been building and modifying amps and effects since my teens. I just turned 61. I have built clones of Dumbles (Skyliner, SSS) and Trainwrecks (Express, Liverpool, and Rocket). I have built and modified amps to customers desires, including a freak hybrid of a JTM 45 with JMP 50 filtering which the customer loved and called the amp Mary, after Hendrix Wind Cries Mary, achieving that "edge" tone where your playing dynamics can control the amount of hair or distortion.
I was blown away when Austin Buddy was able to reproduce the tone of the Dumble Steel String Singer by combining the Skyliner preamp with the SVT power amp, which is what an SSS really is. I also love I can tweak cold biased cathode followers, which is essential to two of the Trainwrecks and the Sodano.
I'm interested in the Axe Fx 3 and the FC-12. I easily have the amps and pedals to fully fund my purchase, I just want to know what pedals I can sell and which ones I need to keep. Here's my current pedal board:
Source Audio Ventris, Strymon Timeline, Source Audio Vertigo, TC Electronic Hall of Fame 2 (Only used for Shimner), Hotone Binary Amp (yes this goes, but the sims are really good), various distortion and fuzz pedals. EHX Mel9.
TLDR; What pedal as an AxeFx III owner do you still need?
