And I'll add that amps and effects can get super-complicated, if you want to do the kinds of things with them you can do with the AF3. Just setting up a stereo signal path, that not only optimizes the way the effects will sound, but also gives you flexible routing options, and the ability to change multiple settings with only one foot tap, is complex. I didn't want to deal with that, which is a reason I chose the Axe (not to mention doing all the research to find the best effects for my purpose, and learning how to use them, and finding the best ways to switch them.) But I had no illusions that I wouldn't have to focus my learning in other directions.You're not dealing with an amp and effects...
I'm glad it's a deep piece of gear, but also that it didn't take a long time to get me up and running. I could stop now, and be totally satisfied for a long time. But if I want to continue to go deeper, I know where the info is. (I've actually added many bookmarks just for that potential future.)
