    Axe-Fx II "Ares" Rev 2.00 Firmware Release

    This old dude is still yet not worthy of the Axe FX II I purchased in 2012 - my playing skills need to advance ( as opposed to the technology). I've only scratched the surface of the capabilities therein (although its been a fun ride). Thanks Fractal team!

    Midlife Crisis Car

    FWIW: I just bought my neighbor's old Prius which he was looking to unload when he recently got a new one. I've owned BMW's & Mercedes cars in the past and was a car snob for many, many years... Not any more . It's a nice ride with plenty of room for carrying stuff and also cool to see how...

    Larry Carlton-Just an Amazing player

    Easily one of the top 5 greatest (and most versatile guitarists) in my book... sometimes I even consider him to be number 1.

    Congress passes Music Modernization Act

    Divisive or not - As is usually the case with new legislation... who sponsored the bill and who paid them off ( ahem, contributed to their campaign). Following the money trail most always leads to the intent / agenda - especially with this congress..

    Problem with other guitarist and combo amp : (

    Sometimes depending on circumstances I play with AxeFX plugged directly into the input of my Fender blues jr ( no fx loop return) and it cuts into the band mix quite well. My Apologies to the purists...

    Cons to running Axe-Fx through traditional cab?

    Try a regular cab / amp or combo you may have on hand with cab sims (and even amp sims on) - it may be sacrilege ... but if you like the way it sounds so be it.. Caveat: If you are going to use an AxeFX then you gotta have an amp of some kind

    AFIII Deluxe Tweed, 4 x OD's, EBMM Albert Lee - video

    Nicely done - a lot of good licks you have in there - as usual!.... Coincidentally I came really really close to buying a previously owned EBMM albert lee model guitar with two humbuckers about a month ago for a bit over $1100 after spotting it at my local Music Go Round. Ultimately came...

    Is it just something different or do cobalt strings sound GREAT?

    FWIW I tried out the cobalts last year on my strat.... not my cup of tea. I sensed a weird tonality that wasn't to my liking. Soon thereafter put on a set of DR Blues strings and everything AOK. YMMV
