you nailed it......only the colour............Found a pic. of what appears to be an early prototype!
@FractalAudio Cliff, does this mean the firmware updates for Axe FX II and Ax8 has stopped coming permanently? Effective immediately?
But if I’m understanding right, there should be aspects to the firmware on the III that are not available to those of us still on earlier hardware, and likely room for even more ways to widen that delta.
When is the III available from G66 Europe?
THIS:
From what I could gather the only reason updates stopped for the Standard and Ultra was that there was no more room for new firmware. Not because those platforms were actually abandoned.
Same here, came out of nowhereWhen I first saw this, I thought it was another joke????
Didn't see this coming so soon.

I'm disappointed to be honest.
This is why I don't base decisions off of anyone's advice or comments other than the manufacturer. So much disinformation given as fact when the actual truth is no one knows anything.I feel bad for all those people who posted on the board who kept asking 'I have cash, but should I hold out for a III?'. And we all told them 'no, there's nothing new on the horizon, the XL+ will see you through for many years'. The latter is still true but boy were we wrong about the former. And I reckon those who took the plunge and got an XL+ on our advice might now feel pis sed. I know I would.
I had an AX8 and still have an XL but I use my Ultra live because there are sounds on it that I have yet to be able to match with the newer units. One of the biggest 'blessings' was when the Ultra firmware updates stopped and the unit stabilized. One of the biggest letdowns was when the editor updates stopped. Operating systems rolled on but the editor did not. I had to keep a mini computer loaded with XP and use a specific interface to keep my banks and presets updated via editor.
The people that just got XL+'s got a super deal and with the resale value it is unlikely they would lose much if they wanted to upgrade. I think the XL series has a ton of life left BUT I hope they keep updating the editor. Long after the firmware updates stop. These units have a long 2nd, 3rd, 4th life, due to affordability, that brings in new potential customers for the new showcase products.
