Axe-Fx III with E-bow

I've been using an e-bow for a very long time now. Does anyone have a suggestion how to use EQ on the Axe in order to not have to use the tone knob on the guitar? I hope I'm making myself clear here - for a not too harsh sound I always turn the tone knob fully down - I'd like to be able to not...

Anyone using Red Sound FRFRs?

I have the volume of the Elis.8 at around noon and the Axe between noon and 3 o'clock - works great.

I have a pair of Elis.8 and love them. I used to used Atomics but they were way too heavy for me. The Elis are small but can be very loud, I use them live as well and they can cope with drums easily.

Chase Bliss Automatone vs Axe Fx

I have a Chase Bliss Automatone and I love it -though it's definitely overkill and someone more skilled than I am could probably reproduce those sounds on the Axe Fx III. That said I think that the Chase Bliss preamp is so easy to dial in AND to adapt to playing situations that I wouldn't want...

AFIII My humble first track with my new multi-stringed acoustic guitar (31 strings)

It's pretty much a C minor tuning with no A's or Ab's so it could be C- dorian or aeolian. The baritone neck is tuned (low to high) G, C, F, Bb, Eb, G, C.

AFIII My humble first track with my new multi-stringed acoustic guitar (31 strings)

It doesn't really have a name. It is loosely based on the so-called Picasso guitar Linda Manzer built for Pat Metheny in the 1980s. But his guitar has 42 strings....

It's just the Axe-Fx. It has RMC pickups - they sound fantastic and the baritone neck also has synth access.
